YOUR ULTIMATE LIFESTYLE & CITY GUIDE FOR SARASOTA

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! It is time for Family!
After Halloween we all knew it: The year was over.
It got cold, we switched from chilled chardonnay to room temperatured merlot (if you get the room warm enough) and finally we could fire up that chimney. Comes Thanksgiving we sit back, review the year and make plans for the next one. One thing we always should have in the next years book is family. The years fly by in an blink of an eye and even I catch myself skipping the one or the other family reunion. And I always regret that. There is nothing more important then your own blood. Your roots. Your loved ones. I enjoy it so much having my feet under my parent table, surrounded by a dozen or two family members (yes, we are busy we Edelsbachers:) and gaining 5 pounds in a week just by trying new recipes from mom.
If you don't have time to get to your people try to invite some of them. You will be surprised how many will show up for the holidays if they hear that you live in Sarasota Florida! And we will help them to find out what's going on in this city.
