This is a story that makes me laugh every time I think about it or tell it. When the boys went away to college, they only came home on holidays and sometimes, due to their sports schedules, not every holiday.

Our oldest, Brandon, made it home for Thanksgiving one year from Tulane University. We were getting ready to watch the football games and he said, “where’s the tradition?”

The tradition? I had no idea what he was talking about and asked him.

He said, “You know, the peanuts and M&Ms that we eat while we watch the football game”.

So now, every Thanksgiving, we make sure and have “tradition” for him.

Tradition Recipe

1 jar salted peanuts
1 bag plain M&M’s

Mix together in a large bowl and enjoy!

Wishing you and yours a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving! 🙂
