Seven months ago, when our entire family was all at home and together, I had a brilliant idea to cook a Thanksgiving dinner.

It was April, and it seemed a little odd at the time, but it was really fun.

Who knew that on Thanksgiving (in November) this year our family would not be together. At least physically.

Apparently I must have had some sort of premonition. And now I know we already had our Thanksgiving as a family this year.

I hope a lot of you will be celebrating Thanksgiving today and also maybe in April or May or February next year.

Because it’s not the day that counts. It’s who is sitting at the table (or on the zoom screen) with you.

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours. I am so thankful.

I know tomorrow is Thanksgiving but my kitchen is ready for Christmas!

This is a photo from last year but I really love it so much.

Tomorrow we will all be in the kitchen preparing a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. I know it’s going to be so different for many of us.

Last year we hosted 28.
This year we have 4.

But I am ok with that. We are all doing what is right and we will actually have a computer on our thanksgiving table so we can enjoy our dinner together with Matt and Michael in Texas.

It’s ok that we aren’t together physically. Because we will be together.

Especially in our hearts.

There is no doubt that we have all spent a lot of time at home these past few months.

Wait. I know, it’s been more than a few months. It's been a lot of months.

Being at home has made me realize there are a few things that I have neglected in our home. To be honest, I should have taken care of them forever ago.

One of those projects was adding dimmers to some of the lights in our home. #sponsored

I was going to call an electrician to install dimmers and then I realized I could hook up all of the lights to our Caséta by Lutron Smart Bridge. The cool thing about the @lutronelectronics Smart Bridge, is that it doesn’t need wifi to communicate.

That means we get super-fast, ultra-reliable smart lighting that works not only right but right away.

It’s also good to know, that if our wifi goes down (which happens all of the time), all of our Lutron programming and schedules won’t disappear. That is a good thing since we have maxed out our wifi bandwidth many times with all of us working at home!

This lamp on our kitchen island is one of my favorite lamps in our home. I can use my Pico Smart Remote to dim the lights. I can also use my phone to turn the light on whenever we want, wherever I may be.

I am so in love with the table I created for our Shrimp Boil grilled dinner. This is such a fun idea for a holiday dinner!

The table came out fabulous and the placemats and green glasses are from @homedepot!

For more information, just swipe back one post for all of the details. All of the recipes are on my blog today too.

Did you see how I served “portable s’mores”? Can you figure out what they are?

Check out this morning’s post!

You all know I am always trying to mix things up when I treat our family to a special dinner.

As the holidays near, I came up with a fun dinner celebration that includes four grill dinner ideas and lots of holiday decor.

Thanks to my partnership with @homedepot, I moved our new Weber Spirit E-315 grill (which is exclusive to @homedepot) to the back porch which meant my dinner prep was only a few steps from the table!

I wanted to prepare a dinner that was fun but different, so I decided to make a Seafood Boil!

I used four different grill ideas to make my dinner. I grilled the corn, made the Seafood Boil on the grill, roasted the marshmallows on the grill, and cooked the ‘Portable S’mores” on the grill.

The Home Depot carries a selection of Top Brands, such as Weber, and they offer free delivery on all grills purchased online. For in-store grill purchases over $399 you qualify for free assembly and delivery. (I do need to mention that I put this grill together ALL BY MYSELF. Although it wasn’t hard.)

I also had fun setting a very special holiday table for our family dinner.

Swipe left to see the photos. I found the placemats and the glassware @homedepot.

On my blog you will find the photos, the how-to and the recipes.

I also shared a surprise wooden tabletop I made for a prep table.

I just finished a live tour of my kitchen on my Facebook page. It’s on my page called My 100 Year Old Home.

I know, it’s such a clever name.

I think I probably answered the top ten questions I am always asked about my kitchen!

I walked around the entire kitchen and kept thinking of more and more things you might want to know.

Let me know if I left anything out.

You can watch the tour at https://fb.watch/1X-JICLKcp/.

Just go to my Instagram home page and tap on the link to access the tour on my Facebook.
