I love getting gifts especially unexpected gifts. I was delighted to find out that my friend S had an unexpected present for me. I love surprises!
S had gotten me a copy of the book, The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. This book was a New York Times Bestseller and it won the Booker prize, the British version of the Pulitzer prize. More importantly this book is set in Kerala India, the part of India I will be visiting in January. Reading it I am getting a feeling for the sights, sounds and smells of the area. I am so excited about my trip!!!

I almost went to Brazil instead but Brazil will always be there and India is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Regardless, any option that involves being on a warm beach in January (Kerala is on the coast) as opposed to friggin cold Boston, is A-ok with me! And I love love love Indian food! Food friends and fun, that is what I am talking about!
For the record during this time of thanksgiving, let me say that I am truly grateful for all of the fabulous friends both old and new that God has blessed me with. I am so blessed!
What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving?
