Happy Thanksgiving.

A year ago I began blogging on food. The past year has seen many changes but good food and (normally) healthy eating are still a major focus.

Last year Thanksgiving was just three of us. We pushed ourselves into the realm of the gourmand and shared an intimate dinner amongst family.

This Thanksgiving we served a traditional menu, with some Northern California touches (what meal is complete without garden fresh kale and pumpkins?)

Another change was the guest list. This year we cooked for 15. I would like to express my extreme gratitude to all who brought dishes, did dishes and complimented dishes.

Thanks also to those who have followed my cooking and eating exploits over the past year. More is to come. Look for future entries in health; food and body awareness; corprate agribusiness; and organic food production.

Happy cooking and eating!
