\"Thanksgiving<\/a><\/p>\n

10. Our home is pet-free, so we can take off whenever we want.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0\u00a0 Costco’s yellow legal pads and architecture mechanical pencils. Don’t know why, but they make me very happy.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0\u00a0 The internet. It makes the writer’s life so much easier.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0\u00a0 Public libraries. Without them I’d have to sell internal organs to pay for my reading habit.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0 We are healthy and active. Good health is an undeserved blessing we too often take for granted.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0 My husband. He said “Go for it” without batting an eye when I decided to quit teaching and give writing a try.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0 A mother who taught all her children to cook. Really, really well.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0 Grandma Conrad’s pie crust recipe<\/a>. Yes, the recipe came from Mom when she taught us to cook.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0 The family’s coming to our house for Thanksgiving. I’d much rather cook than pack.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0 Mom will tell the same stories she always tells. And I’ll be glad to hear them all over again since that means she’s still here!<\/p>\n
