I stood in my kitchen today, unprepared for Thanksgiving.
Instead of our tradition of going to the desert to be with the rest of our kin, we stayed home due to illness.
I hadn’t been to the grocery store, and I had to come up with something. It’s been rainy, cold and dark today, so I was excited that I had all the ingredients I needed, to make one of our favorite soups.
I’m thankful to have food this Thanksgiving, even if it wasn’t a turkey dinner.
