"I'm so lucky that I just have to drive down to San Mateo to enjoy the holiday with the rents and sissy-and I'm so fortunate and grateful I get to be with them. I know we all have people we wish we could hug again, and maybe have their famous stuffing one more time (my grandmother Judy lives on when I make her giblet gravy). The holidays stir up so many emotions and can feel bittersweet, like the cranberry relish. Let's eat our feelings!"
"With all the tumult happening in our world, I'm trying to take some deep breaths and not let any stress creep into this much-needed holiday break. It's time to chill. I'm planning on sleeping in, taking some yoga classes and long walks in our semi-clear and crisp air (yay, no rain right now), and I'm ready for some cheerful holiday décor to go up in this apartment. (Pink tinsel tree, it's your moment.)"
Spending Thanksgiving with family in San Mateo brings gratitude and comfort while also evoking bittersweet memories of loved ones and traditional dishes like grandmother Judy's giblet gravy. The holiday prompts plans for rest: sleeping in, yoga classes, long walks in crisp, mostly clear weather, and cheerful apartment decorations such as a pink tinsel tree. Meals include leftover turkey sandwiches and pozole made from the carcass, celebrating the turkey's full life. Entertainment plans include watching nostalgic and music-focused documentaries and vintage films, including Laurel Canyon: A Place in Time and The Pleasure Of His Company.
