What’s Cooking for Empty Nesters?

November 7, 2010 | by Natalie Caine | No Comments

Zucchini_025.jpgPlanning for Thanksgiving is just beginning.  Talk of recipes and traditions that are changing.  Boomers think about getting out of town and not cooking anymore and yet they love the smell of apple pie at home. 

What are you planning?  Do you need to shift traditions and write a new?

Purple_Fruit_063.jpgOne family didn’t have much family around, as in the past, so they went to a restaurant. As Leslie said, “Why didn’t we do this last year?  Fun and not lonely”? 

Sometimes changing traditions brings memories and tears.  Why wouldn’t you cry?

Peppers_029.jpgAnother family changed the traditional day to accommodate in laws and travel schedules.  They celebrated the week before Thanksgiving.  What will you be doing?

Have fun visiting memories and building new ones, Natalie
