Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends!

• My pleasure, Gaelikaa. :)

• MPM, thanks. There's so many from which to choose. :)

• LadyFi, I'm glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for stopping by. :)

• Thanks, Susan. I started this a couple of months ago after David McMahon retired his blog. He was doing these picks daily (among several other posts) and I have no idea how he could keep up with it all. I opted for weekly and find that it keeps me plenty busy. Thanks for the visit. :)

• Thanks, Bach. I'm sure you'll enjoy them. :)

• Moannie, thanks. They are indeed all winners. I always have a difficult time trying to select just one as the top choice. Thanks for stopping by. :)

• Smiles4U, I'm glad you're enjoying my post choices. Thanks for letting me know. :)

• MT, my pleasure. You're always a fine read and I'm happy to point you out to others - though I'm sure most of them already know you. Safe travels, my friend. :)

• DS, nicely put. Thanks for stopping by to support. :)

• Michael, thank you. Our Canadian Thanksgiving was last month but I'll try to inhale some turkey from across the border. I hope your holiday is wonderful. Thanks for stopping by. :)

• Thanks, MJ. I'm glad you are enjoying these posts. Meredith is a gem, isn't she? Thanks for stopping by. :)

• Maggie, thanks for stopping by. I'm glad you agree with my choices and that you've enjoyed them. :)

Woman in a Window said...

Hilary, thank you. I chuckled that a poem such as this one found its way here. And to think, your pictures are what brought it on.

Thank you!

Thank you so much, Hilary. I was totally dumbfounded by the reaction to the shot of my silly "girls"! So very fun. Looking forward to having a look at your picks this week!
Gratefully,
Kathleen

MaggieGem said...

Wow, I was quite pleasantly surprised that I've mentioned, thank you!

Cedar said...

Thank you Hilary, I saw one of my post got a little more than my usual hand full of readers and I found out why here. You are aces.

Hilary said...

• Erin, poems such as any that come from your head are always worth a good listen. Thanks for stopping by. :)

• Thanks kindly, Kathleen. I love that shot. They're so cute, funny and serious all at the same time. Thanks for the visit. :)
