Hello Friends,

Our country honored its veterans and active military this past week on Veteran's Day. Sending out a special thank you to all of you who have served our country - our family is grateful for your service.

This family photo was taken last weekend at parent & family weekend at the University of Minnesota. The weather was perfect for a November game, we had so much fun! (And now, one week later, we have snow on the ground!)

In this newsletter I'm sharing Everything Thanksgiving, full of recipe inspiration for your Thanksgiving and Friendsgiving celebrations. From sweet to savory, there's a little something for everyone!

I also wanted to share with you a new way to save your favorite recipes from my site. Find my recipes (and those from other food bloggers) here, on Smackeral!

Thank you for following along with me at afarmgirlsdabbles.com - Have an awesome weekend!
