I’ve associated November with the color brown and Thanksgiving in the past. This month our yard in New Hampshire usually is a faded dull green that turns to a light brown. Roadside vegetation is a rich brown as well as surrounding bushes. I start planning the holiday feast, the table decor and guests pretty early. I’m sitting by our toasty fire with a hot cup of coffee in hand while dreaming of the 27th.
Halloween decorations and pumpkins are returned to the dusty storage shelf. It’s a lot of fun listening to Louis Armstrong or Ella Fitzgerald as I pull out turkeys, my pilgrims, cornucopia and gourds. I usually browse through my tablecloths, planning what we will use for Thanksgiving.
As a I finish this post I have to update you. Now our yard is a sea of glistening white and opaque. Snow and ice frosts the mailbox, the tree branches and pumpkins sitting on the stoop. Similar to last mid November a bus snowstorm hit yesterday and the night before. After all is said and done we got about 8 inches of the fluffy stuff.
Yesterday was a snow day from school. I watched movies, did a load of laundry and rested as I’m still experiencing bladder issues. Hopefully a cancellation will arise soon soI can get some medical help.
Blessings to you all as you go about your day.
All My Best,
Mary
I like your turkey – did your father carve “Mary” ? Here in Plymouth, Michigan we got over 9 inches of snow – a record for this time of the year! I love the snow but not to drive in…

Hi Daksha, I’m waiting for a cat scan that will be scheduled soon. Here in the USA it’s a waiting game for health care. I’m getting through, living and working but it’s uncomfortable. I’m strong though and I have faith that all will be well. Take care, my friend.😉🌈
