Holiday Firsts
This holiday weekend was a first for me. Actually two firsts. For the first time in decades of family dinners, I made the dressing. From scratch with cornbread and lots of fresh sage. It’s my mama’s recipe, with my grandmother’s tweaks and it was GOOD! I rested every day of the four day weekend. I rested *before* I got tired. And I loved it. Sleep and relaxation hit different when they’re not rewards for overworking.
