Perfect Fit

Christmas came early this year in the form of a trip to northern Idaho for Thanksgiving. Adam joined me for some family time consisting of amazing food, fun games, and overall bonding + relaxation. It was good to re-introduce the BF to the fam for the first time since Rice graduation. Throughout my time at home, I was reminded of many blessings in my life and reasons to give thanks.
In truth the amazing rendezvous has already been expertly recapped by my dear mother, so my words here will be brief. My stomach and heart could not have been happier nor fuller. We celebrated Mom's birthday a yummy ice cream cake and candles. Lots of candles. Though Mom got her share of gifts, the kids got very special presents, too- first edition, hand-signed copies of the long-awaited family cookbook. Time to start baking!
