Whether your table is filled with all the trimmings, house is packed with friends and family, or you are spending this Thanksgiving in a more cozy atmosphere and keeping it small and simple, today is a day to sit back and remind yourself all that you have to be thankful for.

First and foremost I am thankful for chocolate. 😉

The man that keeps the roof over our heads.

And my cute little buddies that fill my home with joy.

Cozy flats, good magazines and limitless cookbooks.

The amazing friends and family that I will be sharing my plate with today, those that are spending their holidays with their families and  and the many foodie friends I have since starting this project.

Having a job (jobs) I love and being in a place in my life where I can afford to have them

Autumn leaves dancing through the yard...

This list could go on and on, but for today, we will keep it short and wish you and yours a cozy Thanksgiving.

 Now fix your family some pumpkin pie cocoa and they'll be thankful, too.

    How delicious and cozy! I'm going to have to try it. I have a bunch of pumpkin puree leftover in my freezer and no idea what to use it for. Thanks for the suggestion! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Oh yum. I've had a major hot cocoa craving all day, and this post isn't helping one bit. I think we all know exactly what I'm going to be making after dinner tonight. 🙂
    PS - Love the mug! Must see if F21 in Canada is carrying them (I really, really hope they do).
