Gratitude is important. I want to be more intentional about expressing thanks for my blessings. I am hoping to make this a monthly feature. What are you grateful for this month?
I am grateful for:
1. The beautiful autumn colors.
2. My gift of photography.
3. Friends who cleaned and restrung my guitars.
4. No damage from Zeta's remnants blowing through on Thursday.
5. Finding new food for my cats to help their allergies.
6. A strong start on Medium and writing that continues to improve.
7. A new Instant Pot, so I can cook more.
8. A refund on a lawnmower I wasn't able to use.
9. The ability to learn and grow.
10. Music. And I'm setting an intention to play my instruments in November.
Hi Kristi! I think WIX is having some issues today. Sorry about that. My instant pot was an early birthday present, so I'm a newbie. So far I've made spaghetti and southwestern chicken and rice. Both were delicious!
I commented, but it seems to have disappeared, so this is take two. Anyway, welcome to the Ten Things of Thankful! I love autumn, too, and instant pots. They combine well, I think. I just cooked a winter squash from my garden in one this week. What are your favorite things to cook in the instant pot?
Thank you all for the welcome! I just discovered that I can't reply to individual comments. Hopefully, WIX will remedy that soon! I'm happy to have a new community!
So glad you liked my photo, Pat!
I'm working hard on Medium, Lisa!
I think my cats are allergic to chicken, Dyanne. Grain-free wasn't helping. I switched to a salmon limited ingredient formula. So far, so good!
I hope you all have a great week and new month!
Welcome to the Ten Things of Thankful! We hope you will enjoy the hop and become a regular contributor! Hoping Zeta was the last of the hurricanes for the season - what a year (my husband works for the Red Cross, so even though we are far inland and not directly affected, but I am acutely aware of what a terrible year it has been for them). Fall is my favorite time of year. And I had a cat with skin and tummy issues that I finally decided was a grain allergy. When we went with grain-free, his issues cleared up. Now I have one who had urinary tract issues at only 1 year old and is on prescription cat…
Welcome to ttot! What a great week! Yay for medium. I'm slack on mine.
