"Cranberry Thanksgiving" by Lisa

Next up is Lisa:

There were two ways I wanted to go with this challenge. One was to document my family's love of playing Scrabble, a game we frequently played together, but I also wanted to document this particular holiday book we read together and the memories associated with it. I'll have to start another page about Scrabble. :)


Journaling reads: I immediately noticed copies of Cranberry Thanksgiving on the school library shelf. Something about it was familiar and I just knew there was a cranberry bread recipe at the end. I flipped through, but the story didn't seem familiar. As I suspected though, there was a recipe at the end! It was the recipe Noona used for Thanksgiving. How fun to revisit this story with you!

Don't forget, this challenge won't be due until Saturday, November 28. Be sure to post a link to your take on this one to the original challenge post for your chance to win the beautiful prize from PixiePetals! Thanks!
