Tablescapes, A Little Christmas Past

Thanksgiving is on the horizon but with Christmas just around the corner I couldn’t help thinking about last year…and I was reminded of the many things I have to be thankful for tomorrow…

    Jenna, I love your Holiday Cheer and look back! Now my taste buds are ruined for breakfast…instead of yogurt and granola I’m having visions of Pimento Cheese Tortilla Spirals, an Open Grits Bar with Shrimp and an Alabama Frosty! 🙂 Wishing you and your family a Delicious and Happy Thanksgiving!

  2. Looks like you had a very festive and fun holiday season last year Jenna! Wishing you a wonderfully Happy Thanksgiving:@)
