Reflections on 2010

“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.” ~ William Arthur Ward

We had an amazing Christmas and it is always fun to get family together to laugh, share, and spend quality time together reflecting over the year behind us. 

As 2010 comes to a close and another holiday season was ending, we took time to be thankful for a roof over our head, good health, close family ties, careers we enjoy, and so many other things we couldn't possibly list here! 

Grandma lived a life of gratitude and her example was one of the best lessons for all of us. She used to say that when life seemed difficult, being grateful for our many blessings made any difficulties we encountered seem insignificant. I can attest to the fact that this is absolutely true and something I live by each day.

We have many great things planned on Grandma Cooks 365 for 2011 and hope you enjoy preparing and serving all the recipes we're sharing with you. We sincerely hope the items and ideas we post each day will help brighten your day and make your life a little easier!

We wish you all a Happy New Year filled with warm family memories, good food, close friends, and abundant blessings! See you next year!
