    I’m always a bit envious when you guys celebrate your Thankskgiving. It seems that it’s a perfect time and all by its own, rather than being lumped in with Christmas like ours is. ;-) Love this listing, Maggie, and so honored to have my Pumpkin Kahlua Maple Latte included! Folks have been enjoying it with Kahlua, with coffee, or both. :-)

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Thanks Shirley – I wonder, does our Thanksgiving give you a little nudge to start planning yours? It always sneaks up on me so a head’s up would be helpful :) xo
