The year has turned its circle,
The seasons come and go.
The harvest all is gathered in
And chilly north winds blow.
Orchards have shared their treasures,
The fields, their yellow grain,
So open wide the doorway
Thanksgiving comes again!

Tipper,
Happy Thanksgiving! Last night I
had 1 1/2″ of Snow, so this morning
I made my first wonderful Snowcream.
It was like “manna from Heaven.”
And there’s still another batch in
the freezer to help settle today’s

Happy Thanksgiving to you Tipper and all of your family. I really enjoy reading your blog every day and like you, I have so much to be thankful for each and every day.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of the Blind Pigs there. Thank you for bringing your readers so much joy and laughter through the year.
From the Banks house to all of you, Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Blind Pig gang. I concur with Judy.
I am truly blessed and I am truly thankful. I hope you and your family, and all your readers, have a very wonderful Thanksgiving day.

Inspired by the posting of the poem by Tipper.
“Late Night Prep, No Mornin’ Drip”
My husband hollered with a “Oh no”, and a shout!
B. did you know that the coffee pot is out?
We can’t wake up without,
our mornin’ brew very stout!
The “brewer” water was brought to a boil..
Opened the lid, then we poured.
Hot water spilled over the coffee in the filter.
It began to drip a little off kilter.
It’s workin’ and if this is all that goes wrong, hey…
we’ll have a Happy Thanksgiving Day!
Happy Thanksgiving to all…and to all a sleepy restful afternoon!
Through the hills chill winds blow,
Carrying with them a hint of snow.
But down in the hollow oh so deep,
Where fruits of the harvest we reap.
Good folks gather at the old home,
Called back from where e’er they roam.
Together they say a simple grace.
Knowing their highland’s a special place.
All of of are blessed by roots in the high country, a love for the deep hollows and steep hills, and a special sense of connection to a part of the world which truly is, in the words of the late Bryson City poet Leroy Sossamon, the “backside of heaven.”
All the best to each and every Blind Pigger on this Thanksgiving Day.
