  2. Oh my -- I am THANKFUL for that DVR as well. Seriously, I don't know what I did without it! We zip through commercials (especially considering most are quite inappropriate) and I don't worry about missing a show. Like most things on Food Network.

    And I love Z- Praise God for health!

    I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Thanks for linking up, sweet blogging friend!
