It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Shleck, Producer J and I hope that you got everything on your To-Do List done in plenty of time to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday – we sure did and we loved spending time with our friends & family….

…next on my To-Do List is to use up all that leftover turkey!

Producer J and his family shared their Thanksgiving with me this year and I wanted to share some pictures with you!

Producer J and I goofed off all day, as usual and Yup!  That’s my homemade apple pie – made with lurve.

There’s nothing like a cut-throat, post-food coma holiday Uno game!

I hope your holiday was extra-special, too, and stay tuned for our next upcoming podcast!
