Abundance


Look what happened here this week!
I was blessed to bake a huge, huge batch of pies to benefit the local women's shelter. The ladies helped roll out crusts and peel the apples and mix up the pumpkin custard...


My neighbor Steve grows organic produce...


He donated heirloom apples for the pies. I wanted to pay him but Steve insisted with a smile.


The ladies and I baked for two days straight in a commercial kitchen...


And we got to watch a crowd of people enjoy lots of yummy pie!


For me, this is the essence of Thanksgiving,
savoring the sweetness of sharing and counting our blessings.
God has been so good to us.
