Thankful Thursday: the food edition.

I am thankful for having all the food I could possibly eat. Millions are malnourished but not me.

I am thankful for the tools I have to enable its preparation...

...and handy storage...
 

...and cooking.

Yes, I made that yummy beef stew again. Every bit as good this time.

I am thankful that my 30+ year-old stove works...
 

...and that it has a self-cleaning oven.

Not that I use that feature very often.

I am thankful for the things that accompany good food.

In the words of Ben Franklin, "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."

Or, as Homer puts it, "Mmm, beer!"

Something to think about, eh?

Thanks for your post. It is always good to be nudged into gratefulness.

That Ben Franklin was a pretty smart guy, eh?

[Miss T]

Ditto. Except for the beer part.

Homer - so eloquent. :)

Excellent choices!

I find myself equally tickled by all the things not highlighted in the photos.. the toothbrush, the green canister next to the espresso maker (I had that canister set!). Not being much of a beer drinker.. although I have had beers that I certainly enjoyed (thanks to my daughter)...the crock with the charger clip.. must be a beer thing?
and yes, very thankful.

I have a feeling Mr.Motorcycle is about to think that Ben Franklin was about the smartest guy ever. Personally, I've always been a fan with the exception of his suggestion that a turkey be the country's symbol...

You mean. . . you're supposed to DO something with the self-cleaning oven feature?

I love this post! We have so very much to be thankful for.
