As we approach Thanksgiving later this week, I would like to take a moment and express my gratitude to you for reading my blog, and for inspiring me with your creativity! It’s been a tough year for everyone, I really feel that the support of this community has helped me get through the rollercoaster of emotions that 2020 has inflicted on all of us around the world.
In the spirit of community support, have you heard about Crosshatch Publishing? A while back I submitted my painting “Pause For A Moment” and they featured it on their site! It is a wonderful way to connect with other artists globally, and it’s not just for visual art, for all you writers and journalists, they also encourage writers to share their work! Click here and scroll down to see all the submissions!
Crosshatch Publishing- The definition of crosshatch is to mark with two series of parallel lines that intersect. Here at Crosshatch Publishing, this represents the connection between the artist and the world. We want to connect people through our creative impulses and our shared humanity.
Like most people, this Thanksgiving will be just my husband and I. We will make all the traditional side dishes, minus a dead bird, since I’m pescatarian. I think I am mostly looking forward to the pumpkin pie! 🥧
I wish you a safe and gratuitous holiday safe with your immediate family and lots of good food! 🙏😊

Congratulations on the Crosshatch. We all can be thankful for what we got, or that we haven’t got covid cooties. Wonderful painting.

Thanks, Tim! Yes, while we can complain about lots of things, there is also plenty to be grateful for, especially being healthy! 🙏

Thank you! I’ve been eating pescatarian for over 4 years now, a mostly plant-based diet with just a little fish mixed in, it works for me!

Congratulations on your publication my friend. Your work is beautiful. I too am thankful. My husband and I will be doing the same thing for thanksgiving. My husband is also a pescatarian for fifteen years now. We too will have some side dishes and I will make a sweet potato pie. You two have a truly blessed weekend. Love and hugs Joni 😘🤗💕❤️

Happy Thanksgiving, Tiffany! I haven’t researched this, but I’m betting those first pilgrims enjoyed some fish. After all, they were on the coast.

Hi. Pumpkin pie was my favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal too. Bought it at a local bakery. It was great.
