Am I understanding that someone MAILED you food? However you got it, it was a wonderful gesture and I could probably guess who sent it. Friends are awesome, even if they are "imaginary".
After reading all the posts (reference "Memphis Area") of course it is OBVIOUS that someone from The SOUTH would mail food. It's what a "Good Suthuner" does! LOL

It was such a thoughtful thing to do!

Well, FedExing is a bit different than mailing - lol!
It probably is a Suthuner thing though!

Hmmm, well, Timmy has been contributing to part of the decorating themes one of the Christmas threads. He may have advanced in the cooking area - cooler thingy included. I told him he was taking a strange turn. Next thing you know, he'll be wearing a frilly apron!!!
Hey! My apron's not frilly!

Tonight is my Thanksgiving Day. I've always heard it said, "better late than never". And thats especially true tonight. So... tonight, I am having my Thanksgiving Dinner. Why am I sharing this with you? Because, well, because it was of one of our AFF members who has made this dinner possible.
A little background: I didn't have a Thankgiving Dinner like everyone else. I'm not doin holidays this year, so I declined any and all invitations for dinner. But someone in our family said they would bring me a plate and come visit with me Thanksgiving evening. They never came- and I haven't heard as yet why they didn't show up. So dinner on Thanksgiving day was a can of Beef Stew. I shared this here on AFF and someone said something about "sweet tater casserole". I love "sweet tater casserole, with the little marsh mellows, and pecans."
Well, this evening, I came home from work and, on my front porch is a package. Inside was some turkey and a tupperware bowl of "sweet tater casserole"! Sent to me by one of my friends here on AFF!
And, I'm thankful. I'm thankful for turkey and sweet tater casserole. I'm thankful for how God has been close to my side throughout this rough year because He still hasn't failed me. I am thankful for you.... my friends.... no, my AFF Family... who have prayed with me, cried with me, called or PMed when I really needed someone to talk to I'm thankful for your many kindnesses everything you have done from praying to sending cards. I can't list names- theres too many. I'm thankful for each of you.
And I'm thankful for a sister in Tennessee who is so thoughtful to share her Thanksgiving Dinner with me. A few days a part maybe, but... right on time. I won't tell who it is... (though it wouldn't take a lot of work to figure it out)- I'll just say thank you. You've just made my year. And I pray God will bless you.
And now.... excuse me while I go eat.
OA,
SO thankful that someone blessed you this way. Happy Thanksgiving!
