Good Times with Great Friends




Last night, Lee and I hosted a pre-Thanksgiving dinner for our "neighbors." The reason I say "neighbors" is only 3 of them still live in our 'hood, while the other 4 used to. Despite that, we had a great dinner, courtesy of an easy recipe I pulled from Real Simple Magazine, as well as an intense poker game. Not to mention wine, wine and more wine!

At times, we find ourselves going months without seeing each other (even our next door neighbors), and last night was a good reminder that friends and family are what keep us going strong. Especially in these economic times, we have to remember that a lot of what's going on today is out of our control and we have to enjoy life on a daily basis. Last night was no exception! I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful circle of family and friends who impact my life in different ways.

Let's remember that it shouldn't always take a special ocassion to connect with those we love!
