My Home at Thanksgiving.

    The smells in my home on thanksgiving is suburb! You walk in with the smell of turkey roasting in the oven. Cinnamon and oranges on the stove. Hot apple cider is a family favorite! The one smell I like the best is all the pies baking in the oven.

     The tastes are warm but also cold! Pumpkin pie is warm with a touch of sweetness. Black jerry jello is cold but has a touch of tartness and sweet at the same time. Roast turkey is hot with a taste of garlic and onions. My favorite taste is cranberry salad with a hint of tartness but then you get a hint of sweetness at the end!

     The sights are wonderful! Babies crawling and playing with each other! The Macy day parade and all the floats! Food is one of the best sights with all the verities! But best of sights is family! I think the Norman Rockwell picture describe my scene very well.

 

 

 

The sounds can be loud, but they are wonderful loudness! Timers our going off so that we can remember all the food that is cooking. Going around the table telling of how God blessed us through this last year! The swishing a spoons stirring the stuffing. Best of all of sounds is the babies’ cooing away and talking baby talk!

     The textures are soft but also warm! Soft napkins that wipe your gravy stained face, but also to wipe away tears of joy when you think next year you will have more babies at the table! Soft babies skin as you hold them! Warm apple pie hitting your tongue! After all the eating is done the best texture is dry clean dishes!
