Thanksgiving with Harmony

Soon be will be gathering around the table with our friends and family to celebrate Thanksgiving.

I have my table set just a little early because a Chicago trip is planned. My table creation had to begin before the train leaves.

The stemware and the lidded jars seem to match perfectly.

Love the peacock feather in the centerpiece.

The flatware is Wm. Rogers and Son Gold Plated Enchanted Rose Flatware and was a gift from my husband.

The centerpiece is a wreath now centerpiece as seen here.

My china is Harmony House - West End that belonged to my Mother. The charger is Pottery Barn from a few years ago. I thought it paired well with the woodsy wreath.

I hope your life is full of Harmony this Thanksgiving.

If you are needing a little more harmony in your life here are ten steps:

I'll be back from Chicago just in time for Thanksgiving.

Don't forget to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The cast of reality show "Duck Dynasty" will quack their way through this year's parade.

Here's wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving and one that is filled with harmony. - Judy

I am honoring my Dad today. He served in World War II in the South Pacific and now is 92 and doing pretty good. I am lucky to still have him with us. Thanks Dad and all the veterans who have served our country.

Rolo Pretzel Turtles

I'm sharing a recipe that is super easy and delicious.

Only three ingredients are needed to make these scrumptious bites.

Rolos, tiny twist pretzels, and pecans - how easy it that!!

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. We lined our baking pans with parchment paper. Place the pretzels on the pan, rolos on top. Bake for 3-4 minutes, just long enough to soften the rolos. Take out of the oven and press the pecans on the softened rolos and you are done. That was quick and easy.
