Happy Thanksgiving to all my US readers celebrating the holiday! We're just wrapping up a MAJOR feast at my parents' house, and food coma is imminent.

I hope you're all having a wonderful day filled with delicious treats, friends, family and laughter. Personally, I'm incredibly thankful for the way this year has turned around. The end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009 were pretty tough, with my dad's cancer and the robbery of my parents' house, so it feels good to get together with my family and know that everyone's healthy and happy again.

(And sorry for the snafu with the empty Steals & Deals post and the erratic posting the last couple weeks - I have a ton of fab posts saved up but forgot to schedule some of them, thanks to general holiday craziness and WORK - whew! So glad to have the 4 day weekend.)

Again, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
