Thursday Shares and Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello everyone!  A very warm welcome to you all! 
Happy Thanksgiving to all my U.S. friends and readers!  :)

The videos I have chosen for this post are:

A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire

How to Cook a Quick and Easy Perfect Turkey


Christmas Dinner Table Set with Cambridge Rose Point and Franciscan Apple China

1920's Christmas Fun Footage

Vintage Treasures Christmas Decorating Theme



For the following, I am providing the link sources beneath each photo.  You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.

By plucking her petals, you can't gather the beauty of the flower.


You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy.  Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae. - Paul Walker


I notice everything.  And by everything, I literally mean everything.  I notice when someone stops hitting me up like they used to.  I notice when the way someone talks to me starts changing. I notice the little things that people do, and the little things they used to do.  I notice when things change, and when it's no longer the same.  I notice every single little detail.  I just don't say anything.


Bring on the cups so red!  Gratitude, gobbling and pie are ahead!  And with jingles and hohoho's too so near!  It's time to get your twirl in gear...the holiday season is finally here!


Buy yourself flowers.  Simply because they're beautiful and you deserve beauty in your life.


The keys to good health:  buy food with mindful thought and not impulsively.  Choose less food with wheat, sugar, sodium, crazy chemical additives, etc. Cook food healthfully - for example:  using coconut oil instead of other oils.  Drink more water, especially helpful before meals.  Eat slowly and stop before full. Work out a little daily, even going for a nice walk is helpful.  Get your Vitamin Zzz's.  Sleep enough.


Never ignore someone who loves you and cares for you...because one day you might wake up and realize you lost the moon while counting the stars.


The first caterpillar to turn into a butterfly must have been like...Wooooah!


Healthy diet tool...re-name foods as "forward food" or "backward food".  Before you eat, ask:  "Is this food helping me move forward to better health and improved energy - or backward to feeling unhealthy with a spike-and-crash depleted feeling?"


You don't have to figure out how to solve all your problems right now.  Just figure out what you can do to feel better in this moment.


You can't fall if you don't climb.  But there's no joy in living your whole life on the ground.


Don't let someone's reckless behavior turn you into a recluse.  Vow to become a force to be reckoned with instead!


Choose to live generously and watch your life change.


Sticks and stones will break your bones, but names will never hurt you.  NOT TRUE.  WORDS HURT. Our tongue is a very dangerous weapon.


Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share!

  5. Hi Linda, Happy Thanksgiving to you! With Christmas coming, I love to watch this video on cooking turkey. Oh yes, our tongue is a very dangerous tool that can hurt terribly if we are not careful!

  9. je te souhaite une belle journée

    ici le temps est humide , mais un peu + doux et le ciel vire au bleu

    pour le vie ici la ville reprends sa vie mais le coeur n'y est pas ....

    bisous

    la paix de Jean de la Fontaine ....

    Le noir démon des combats
    Va quitter cette contrée
    Nous reverrons ici-bas
    Régner la déesse Astrée

    O Paix! source de tout bien
    Viens enrichir cette terre
    Et fais qu'il ne reste rien
    Des images de la guerre.

    Chasse des soldats gloutons
    La troupe fière et hagarde
    Qui mange tous nos moutons
    Et bat celui qui les garde.

    Délivre ce beau séjour
    De leur brutale furie
    Et ne permet qu'à l'amour
    D'entrer dans la bergerie.


    Fais qu'avecque le berger
    On puisse voir la bergère
    Qui coure d'un pas léger
    Qui danse sur la fougère

    Et qui du berger tremblant
    Voyant le peu de courage
    S'endorme, ou fasse semblant
    De s'endormir à l'ombrage

    Accorde à nos longs désirs
    De plus douces destinées
    Ramène nous les plaisirs
    Absents depuis tant d'années.

    Etouffe tous ces travaux
    Et leurs semences mortelles
    Que les plus grands de nos maux
    Soient les rigueurs de nos belles

    Et que nous passions les jours
    Etendus sur l'herbe tendre
    Prêts à conter nos amour
    A qui voudra les entendre.

  16. Wow, Thursday already. Christmas is coming and that means my cruise is coming soon in January. At our age, Christmas is for the grandchildren but the cruise is the gift for me.
    Have a great Thursday Linda. See ya.

  17. I especially enjoyed the 20's Christmas video...that was before my time but some of the people involved could have been my parents! :) Some great Salmansohn materials today and one in particular I found immediately helpful. Merci!

  19. Lucky for us here in Canada, we can be thankful again with our American neighbours. Being thankful is always good for the health and for our lives.

  20. Loved the gag Linda. I thought that last guy was going to disrobe. Bless his heart.

    Have a fabulous day my friend. I'm off to get ready for our train ride and Thanksgiving day dinner. ☺

  31. Getting into the festive season! It's started over here too. Already all of the shopping malls are covered with their Christmas decorations.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I know full well that words hurt.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Haven't we all set off those store alarms at one time or another? It's an awful feeling. It would be so embarrassing to be put through the kind of search the did in the JFL gag. The suggestion about labeling food as a forward food or a backward food was interesting. I might try that.

    ReplyDelete
  34. So much to think about here. I love all the quotes. Thank you for visiting my blog...it brought me here.

    ReplyDelete
  35. The moon and the stars, the reckless/reckoned with turtle, and butterfly were stand outs for me today. Thank you Linda :) Happy Thanksgiving back even though I know you had yours already! Thanks for another great post
