Gina Alfani: laughing

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Every Thanksgiving I enjoy a delicious feast that Door Dash brings to me from Bob Evans. It is the next best thing to having to cook for a family. I'm thankful for a tradition I enjoy.

Since the holidays are not a pleasant time for me, my mind is lured to the thought of food and cooking. The things you are supposed to do for the holidays. Something I loved so much, but will never have again. So, writing in my food blog is the next best thing I guess. It is a release for all those food and cooking related desires. One day I will enjoy actually cooking again.

Yes I have gone crazy with the food blog. Now you know why. And it keeps my mind occupied. I'm thankful for having the desire for something, anything. Since The Captain died it was all nothingness. So I'm thrilled to have some desire for something coming back. I've delighted my mom with my renewed sense of humor and laughing again. Even telling her funny stories. That is what he left me with. He would have wanted me to laugh and find humor with life like he did. Trust me, this is progress!

The sadness I can't get rid of is missing my little doggie girl Kiki. That is killing me still. Oh the anxiety! I'd love a lot of little Kikis, but I can't.

My desire for this month is to find those things of holiday joy to share with everyone on all of my blogs. Get ready for the holiday-ish posts. Yes, and the desserts since I have cut sugar from my diet if I care to live a longer life.

Have a great week everybody! Listed below are my new blog posts.
