Happy Thanksgiving!

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
We spotted these lucky turkeys today on our way home from a high school football game.

Thirst

“Love, with very young people, is a heartless business. We drink at that age from thirst, or to get drunk; it is only later in life that we occupy ourselves with the individuality of our wine.”
Baroness Karen Blixen

Beauty

“If you look closely at a tree you'll notice it's knots and dead branches, just like our bodies. What we learn is that beauty and imperfection go together wonderfully.”

Matthew Fox

Cheese Please!

Un repas sans fromage est une belle à qui il manque un œil."
("A meal without cheese is a beautiful woman with an eye missing.")

Brillat Savarin

This was taken at the Laurent DuBois cheese shop across from our hotel in Paris. You could smell the shop 1/2 down the block.

"My first wish is to see this plague of mankind, war, banished from the earth.”

George Washington
