Getting back in to the kitchen to do a little more cooking over the last few weeks has felt good. Preparing a meal isn't usually something I enjoy, but at times the mood strikes and I get in there and actually have fun.
The Thanksgiving meal this year was my inspiration, that's my favorite time of year to slice and dice and bring the meal together. The turkey stuffing I make is a recipe handed down from my grandmother to my mother to me. My Mom was one of four sisters, but she was the only one who ever made that turkey stuffing; everyone loved it, but she was the only one who took the time to make it.
This year as I stood at the kitchen counter getting things ready for the stuffing, I could almost feel my grandmother and my Mom in the room nodding in approval. I thought of their hands over so many years doing what my hands were doing now.
