“Give Thanks With a Grateful Heart” is one of my favorite songs.<\/p>\n

In fact, we sang it at church on Sunday as part of our Thanksgiving service.\u00a0 Have you ever taken a piece of paper and pencil and started writing down the things you are thankful for?\u00a0 I think you would be amazed at the long list you would come up with!\u00a0 \u00a0We have so many things to be thankful for, and at this special time of year I hope you will stop and give thanks before enjoying your Thanksgiving dinner with family and friends.<\/p>\n

While making my Thanksgiving cards this year, I found this clip art which I used in one of my cards.<\/p>\n

As part of the Thanksgiving celebration, the Thanksgiving dinner is always such a special event – one to be thankful for especially when sharing it with family and friends.\u00a0 While going through my recipes for Thanksgiving dishes, I found a recipe for Pumpkin Bars that I have had, and made, for many, many years.\u00a0 I thought I would share it with you as it is a GREAT recipe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ingredients:\u00a0 2 cups sugar; 4 eggs; 1 cup oil; 2 cups pumpkin; 2 cups flour; 2 teaspoons cinnamon; 2 teaspoons brown sugar; 1 teaspoon soda; 1\/2 teaspoon salt; 1 cup nuts (if desired).<\/p>\n

Directions:\u00a0 Beat eggs, sugar and oil.\u00a0 Add pumpkin.\u00a0 Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture.\u00a0 Add nuts, if desired.\u00a0 Grease and flour pans.\u00a0 Bake in two (2) 9 x 13 pans or one (1) large cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n

When cool, frost using 3\/4 stick (6 tablespoons) butter\/margarine; 1 – 3 oz. package creamed cheese, 1 tablespoon cream or milk and 1 3\/4 cup powdered sugar.<\/p>\n

Note:\u00a0 This recipe can be cut in half–making one (1) 9 x 13 pan of bars.\u00a0 Enjoy!!<\/p>\n

~\u00a0 HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU AND YOURS!\u00a0 ~<\/strong><\/p>\n
