The CK Daily – Favorite Thanksgiving Food?
Good morning & happy Thursday!
Well, we are exactly two weeks out from Thanksgiving. I talked about being thankful last week, but this week I want to talk about the food! Haha!
So, this year is going to be a bit different for me. I am going to run a half marathon early that morning and then I will head home and start getting everything ready for the family Thanksgiving dinner. With the race, I will feel even better about the dinner this year since I won’t have to worry about how much I eat after burning all those calories that morning. Lol!
Everyone seems to have their “go to” dish that they love making and taking to Thanksgiving dinners. Every year I make a crockpot mac & cheese that I have kinda tested and developed over the years. I never have to wonder what they want me to bring but I need to bring a couple more dishes this year too, so I am trying to figure that out. I had the thought, “Hey, I have access to the best people in the world every Thursday in this email, why not ask them?” Haha!
So, what’s your “go to” dish that you love making for Thanksgiving? Let me know. I may be able to make one of those to have for the dinner.
I hope everyone has an awesome rest of the week and weekend!

Learning Center Article – Advantages and Disadvantages of VOIP
Everyone has a phone, but fewer and fewer people have landlines. Even as that trend continues, there are cases where a landline makes a lot of sense, and you want to have a stable, reliable phone for specific calls.
When that is the case, you actually have two options for your phone. You can get a traditional landline that runs through the old infrastructure, or you can run your phone through the internet, utilizing something known as VOIP.
