Love these non-traditional ideas, which I would honestly eat any time of year! The Asian short ribs in particular are calling to me. 😊

I think my family would be perfectly content if I only made those for our family dinner from now until eternity.

I'm here for the honest zesty writing and non-traditionalism, as well as the yummy food porn. And yes, I WOULD like some pizza with my pasta, please. 😋. Happy Thanksgiving 🍁

"We all have our talents, our contributions to make and our roles to play. Creating and following rules and rituals, and preserving traditional structures are not mine." This hit me, somewhere deep. I love ritual and traditions, but I also love letting them go, or at least holding them lightly. This is a reminder to loosen my grip this season. ❤️

I also love ritual and traditions, but I should not be entrusted with creating and maintaining them. I have too much of a drive to do things differently, too many new ideas for how to change everything. But, the only reason I have the freedom to change is because of all the ritual makers who hold up the world. We need each other.
