Happy Thanksgiving 2013 (yummy recipe included)

10:58 AM

This Thanksgiving we are very grateful for loved ones near and far.  
And although life is not always easy nor predictable, we are grateful for the opportunity to make the best of all the wonderful things we've been given.

From The Lavender Apple to you, Happy Thanksgiving!
This thanksgiving I made pinecone turkey's with my grandchildren to set on the Thanksgiving table.

 And....since I am from Utah I thought it would be fitting to include my favorite 3 layered jello recipe.  It's not gourmet but it IS yummy!
