Inspirations, the Stories Space Coffee House: If you're reading this it just might mean I'm back, sorta. If you're not reading this, well, congratulations.

And since it's not Canadian Thanksgiving, merely American, I'll get things started.

I think that's what they call a "non sequitur" in the trade.

We have a special coffee blend today – Peet's Holiday Blend dark roast coffee.

There are Twinings English Breakfast and Lemon Ginger teas brewed up and ready.

And some Thanksgiving-like treats.

Hope everyone has a safe and sane Thanksgiving – and Gillian, all the best. ❤️ Missing your mom for the first major holiday has to be difficult, especially with your dad having problems.

Hey, everyone.

Thank you, James, for setting things up and for the treats.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! ❤️🌹🦃

I have a quick moment by myself. What better way than to share dessert with you all on this wonderful Thanksgiving day?

I hope everyone has a lovely Thanksgiving!

🌹Cora's Creations🌹 offers you these special delights.

Hors d'Oeuvres ~ Cranberry Brie Bites

Pumpkin Pie

Cranberry Apple Tart

Pecan Pie

Enjoy! 😊

Thanks for the setup, Bear, and the lovely desserts, Cora.

Our turkey is ready to goin the oven - it’ll go in about 15 minutes from now. Eat at 3.

It should be a calm, chill, sweet day. I have this turkey thing down cold so not too much stress on the food end. My daughter and her son (my grandson!) are coming over.

Between now and then, relax, watch the parade, play a little No Man’s Sky. Perfect day. A lot to be thankful for.

I hope, whether you are celebrating or not, that you have a fine day, all.

Sorry, I missed American Thanksgiving but I see pecan pie leftover so I'll just take a slice of that.

I will get a pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee going. In the teapots we've got some Earl Grey and Buddha's Blend. Sodas are stocked for those needing a cold beverage. Hot water is ready for other teas or some hot chocolate.

Hope you American types are having a good holiday and don't spend yourselves into bankruptcy at the sales today.

The weekend looms for the rest of us. Have a good one, folks!!

Thanks for the setup Ape.

We are slowly rising from our day of gluttony. Everything came out nice, and I got my ass happily kicked in MarioKart all afternoon by my daughter.

Today? Video games and turkey leftovers. We are off to see a play of Sense and Sensibility tomorrow. The only Jane Austin I have ever read. It’s an early Christmas present for Talia.

Enjoy the weekend everyone, Thanksgiving-flavored or otherwise.

Coffee for me!

Weirdly, that sounds rather like Boxing Day in my family home back in the day. Guess it is kind of the same thing, too, the day after the big day. Even the shopping element, though Boxing Day was a retail holiday in Ontario until, I think, the late nineties. "Boxing Day" sales actually started on the 27th back then save a few stubborn retailers who tried to fight the law in court.

It does have a similar vibe to Boxing Day - lots of food, few obligations, chill day.

I wish I knew someone who plays No Man’s Sky. It’s SO fun, and really interesting too. I’m a little obsessed with, yes.

Didn’t sleep well, and dragging a little this morning. We are seeing a play tonight, so I will attempt to take it easy.

Coffee please. Seize the carp!
