1st annual Count Your Blessings Turkey Dinner - as we reflect on all the good things that have happened in our lives and as a small business this year, we decided to share our blessings with others. We contacted the Salvation Army to find a needy family who would otherwise go without a special home-cooked Thanksgiving meal. We all chipped in and prepared a full meal for “our” new family and delivered it to them on Thanksgiving. We feel good doing good for others, and decide to make it a yearly part of our business plan.
