Thanksgiving is coming and the chit-chat at church today was all about Thank
sgiving plans. I noticed that while everyone else was comparing plans and making big gatherings larger by inviting more people, I was thinking small - like going to an Army dining facility. No cooking, no clean-up, delicious food at rock bottom cost. OK, so there's no leftovers, either, but the payoff is a relaxing, enjoyable day. Don't get me wrong - I love to cook. I read recipes recreationaly and love trying them out, but why make more work for yourself? We have even toyed with the idea of going away for the long weekend. I know, that sounds down right unAmerican but hey, WE CAN! And here in Germany it's not a holiday - things will be open. Christmas markets will be 
starting up, there is snow in the Alps -- so many possibilities.I love this empty nesting!

Scott and I are going to go to the DFAC this year to have Thanksgiving. I am with you why cook and do all the work when their are only 2 people. I told Scott that you haven't been part of the miltary unless you have had a least one Thanksgiving there.
I like your new blog. I sure do miss and Germany. When you you talked about the Christmas Market I started to think about the great memories of going to them and how much miss them.
So glad you have a blog! you can check mine out if you want. We are going home for thankgsiving... all Ihave to do is deviled eggs and green bean casserole, I that is relaxing... although Doug and I really were tempted to go to the DFAC instead of driving to Portland. I guess Family comes first!
