November 30, 2014 at 8:53 pmI’ve been watching Manula’s Kitchen videos for months now. My daughter and I love Indian food and my other daughter is a vegetarian. Such great instructions. Such a great variety! Love the vids!! 🙂
I’m thankful for my husband and children for sure. Also that our first grandchild will be born soon. Praying for a healthy baby. Can’t wait to find out if it’s a boy or a girl.

November 28, 2014 at 8:16 pmI am so very thankful to still have my Mom with us. This poor 74 yr old woman has been through so much these last 2 years. It started off with breast cancer about 10 yrs ago. She had radiation and chemo, she beat it! 🙂 Then about a year, a year and a half ago she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Again, she had chemo and radiation. She beat that also 🙂 I am so saddened to say, This Tuesday past, she got the call, she has cancer again! Not sure what kind or how bad yet. She goes to the doctor on the 4th. My Mother is the strongest woman I know! I mean you have to be to go through all this…right? I thought this time she would say I give up, but NO she didn’t!! She is going to fight the fight for the 3rd time!! Like, I said in the beginning I am so thankful to have this woman as my mother!! I hope one day if it comes down to it, I can only be as strong as she is and has been 🙂

November 19, 2014 at 11:16 pmI am thankful to God for the mother I have, who has given me everything I ever need and more! Not just this year but every year.. We all have to be thankful to our mother for all the trouble and difficulties, sacrifices and unconditional love she has shown us from her pregnancy until the end of our lives! Thanking our mother and being grateful to her always has always been very important to me. Being there with her when she needs! Nobody can ever replace a mother! She is our GOD! Once that’s in place, our life is set and will always be successful. That’s what is making me what I am today. Thank you mom! I love you!

November 15, 2014 at 1:38 pmI came to a small city in Canada as a student 2 years ago and was terribly homesick. I knew absolutely no one here. I doubted my decision of coming here every single day and it made me increasingly unhappy and I was constantly stressed out. But unexpectedly I met some beautiful people here who supported me in my toughest time. I am thankful for having surrounded with some amazing friends here, which are almost family now , who made me feel @ home. I am thankful to God for making me realize once again that nothing in this world is more important than your people and relationships. And finally , I am thankful to all my friends and family for being there , because you have inspired me to pass on the love and kindness to other people. 🙂

November 11, 2014 at 1:45 pmI am most thankful for my good health and for my loved ones good health as well. My Mom has always said if you have your health you have everything. That comment never really meant a whole lot to me until about a year ago since now I totally get it. In 2013 I learned that I had a brain tumor and that was my right before i turned 40. In the end it worked out fine. I lost my hearing on the side (right) & I had to do radiation but I’m doing great. I am just so greateful for those amazing doctors, nurses, my wonderful family and friends. And of course God for putting all these amazing ppl in my life. SO my answer is Good health & for my loved ones. The 2 most important things in life (love & health)

November 7, 2014 at 5:41 amA very wonderful ques mam . i think most of us dont have time to thank the people close to us. Ur ques has given a chance to bring out what is hidden in us. In this year i have experienced many ups and downs so first of all i m really thankful to God for giving me strength to face the challenges boldly, thn i wud like to thank the people of my nation for choosing such a prime minister who has the capability to take India to the top and make it corruption free and thank my mother for teaching me right values and making me what i m today.
