It’s the extra touches that provide visual appeal and make food appetizing. If one simply slides a cooked turkey onto a platter, the bird is plain. If one places a turkey onto a platter and surrounds the rim of the platter with sugar-dusted fruit, whole nuts and fresh herbs, it’s the “voilà” moment before a blessing. As we come to table, we should be thankful and may your Thanksgiving be bountiful and special. © Kelly McBride Loft
