Sometimes we get so caught up in the details of what we need to accomplish during the holidays that we forget what the holiday is about. Here’s something fun that you can do in order to remember to keep an “attitude of gratitude” this Thanksgiving.
Check out this neat idea found at beautyandbedlam.com. Here’s what they had to say about these rolls:
“Gratitude Rolls – This simple tradition is a fun way for your family to express what they are grateful for during your Thanksgiving dinner.
As guests arrive have each person write a few things that they are grateful for on small sheets of paper. If you want to spend extra time making homemade butter horn rolls each Thanksgiving like we do, you’ll love them, but purchasing one or more packages of Store bought Crescent Rolls works well without the extra work (which is what I used for these pictures.) Remember, it’s not about having the perfect meal, it’s about celebrating life together. 
Place your gratitude paper slips on the dough wedges, roll them up into the crescent shape and follow the baking directions. When the rolls are served, pass them around and enjoy savoring the moment as each guest tears into their hot roll and then shares the written gratitude statement. If you want to add a fun twist, keep the notes anonymous and have everyone try to guess who wrote what.”
Love, love love that idea!! Try it this Thanksgiving with your family and friends and let us know how it goes!
