Thanksgiving is a holiday that often leaves me feeling a little sad at the end of the day. So much time and energy is dedicated to cooking, making the table perfect and then eating, eating, eating, that after all is said and done I feel a little empty despite being overly full. After all the food is consumed and the table cleared all that remain are the condiments. They stand perfectly aligned, ready for their next assignment but looking as if they might feel a little left out. That's often how Thanksgiving leaves me feeling, left out.
