HandsomeHusband gave me this set in the fall of 2005, when I experienced my 1st Thanksgiving without my mother. I didn’t feel much like celebrating that year (heck, I STILL find it difficult to get into any holiday spirit), but his thoughtful gesture touched my heart. I don’t have many Thanksgiving decorations, so I am glad that he presented me with this one.
