Thanking the Host & Hostess


I have only cooked Thanksgiving dinner once, it was with my sister in Boston and boy, it was a lot of work. By the time the last potato had been peeled, the turkey sliced and the gravy poured, I was almost too tired to even enjoy dinner. It was then that I had a true appreciation for the effort and time that my mom put in each year to ensure that all of the dishes were served at the same time and tasted delicious for that matter.   I hope to host Thanksgiving again, but this year we will be heading to my boyfriend's aunt and uncle's house who will be the gracious host this year.  I will not be arriving empty-handed, but if I were I would love to bring one of these items to thank them for all of their hard work.
