Giving

Heath neighborhood during the Thanksgiving full moon.

Thanksgiving weekend has come to an end and after another day of cooking, I am curled up with a glass of wine contemplating all for which I am thankful. I feel no matter how busy we are there is always time to contemplate and to be grateful.

The nightly news used to be a program that was watched to stay informed while prepping dinner, but lately daily events from around the world have become terrifying. It’s saddening to know people have lost so much to fire, war and hate or viewing adults finding it easy to mistreat one another, all for the sake of money.

As, I sit pondering the vicissitudes of hate; the bottom line is we must be good to one another no matter someone’s skin color or religious preference. Work to be perceptive and decent when dealing with others, and always be available to assist when needed.

I hope everyone had a relaxing holiday,
Kathleen

Six Years

November is the anniversary month of my blog and somehow time always has way of creeping up on me. I remember drafting the first segments of Stylish Heath a year before actually posting the site. I was in the kitchen planning the Thanksgiving menu with mom so, the upcoming gathering would be enjoyable by everyone, including us……as the primary chefs. I remember jotting items into an online notebook so, we would remember recipes, and the time-frame for prepping and cooking. In this book I sketched and scanned images, while taking photographs of all that was going on around Heath…. hence the preliminary versions of the blog.

There is something nostalgic about perusing through those first post, and seeing how we have grown. Please enjoy a few photos from our travels, flowers from the garden and art from museums. I cannot believe six years has gone by so quickly.

Thank you for your support, and for sharing your wonderfully creative ideas, I absolutely love blogging and this has been a remarkable journey!!!
