Ok, I guess it's my turn now....

Today I'm thankful for all the amazing people in my life that love me unconditionally and are always there for me. No matter how crazy or moody I get. It is such a comforting feeling to know you have a support system to back you up whenever you need it. To make you laugh, to give you advice or just to listen.

I am particularly thankful for my wonderful husband and my children, who have supported me unconditionally during the journey of creating this blog. Especially by always volunteering to be the tasters for our recipes... the good ones and the not-so-good ones!!

So, to all of you, thank you for being part of my life 🙂

    I'm so thankful for food and the abundance that we are blessed with. I am also thankful for the baked (vs. fried) versions of donuts;) I've never seena savory donut before but I can imagine these would make a fantastic bread side and that "glaze" looks delicious!

    I vote for savory. You had me fooled for a minute. I couldn't imagine this being savory and now that I read the ingredients, it makes sense and I bet it is better than all that sugary fried stuff.

    I am thankful, period, because my life is good and I feel so lucky to have such a good husband, kids, in-laws, grandkids, siblings, close cousins and friends. Thankful I live in a country that allows us such freedom and abundance. Thankful that you asked the question and made me think, once again, about my good fortune. And thankful for this interesting recipe.
