Tagline: When her best friend's brother stops by to pick up the Thanksgiving rolls, Linda is surprised by their instant connection--and it just might change their holidays.
Off the Cuff Observations: I love the aroma of bread baking too! If I didn't work at Starbucks, a bakery would have been a wonderful-smelling place to work too.
Every year, Linda made a beautiful basket filled with Thanksgiving items -- I paused to think about what would go in a Thanksgiving raffle basket those would be. A turkey? That's not going to add to the beauty of a basket. Maybe place settings, a table runner? Okay. This is plausible.
I've read stories in which someone wonders about the path not taken, but it's usually not as serious as a marriage proposal. My heart really goes out to Linda.
This year, Carla's family bid the highest on Linda's basket again. -- Prediction...the person picking up the rolls is going to be an eligible bachelor!
And I was right. Paul is single!
Linda's heart did a little turkey trot. -- LOL!! Love it.
This story was longer than normal. I love that! I also loved the reason that they're getting together again is to make the perfect leftover turkey sandwich. Nice, fresh idea for a Thanksgiving story, but I am wondering why a Thanksgiving story is appearing in the December 1 issue. Do they need more seasonal stories that aren't connected to a holiday? Just wondering.
