This won’t be much of a real diary, but it comes from my heart.
I wish you safe travels to your destination.
I wish you all a lovely feast with your loved ones.
I wish you courage to withstand the table conversations you will surely have to negotiate and the wisdom to know a hopeless cause when you see one, but still show love and compassion.
Most importantly, I wish you all a happy return to our important task at hand...to make sure everyone at this great big table has a reason to give thanks once again in 2016.
Delicious pie.
Steven
