Thanksgiving Message from CRISP Catering

As we prepare to gather with friends and family for Thanksgiving, Alison and I want to extend out thanks to each and every one of you for all that you do to enrich our lives.
We have so much to be thankful for - our friends and family, of course - but also our vibrant businesses that provide us with much more than just a salary. They provide us with the opportunity to be part of the community, to become a valauble thread in the fabric that binds us in the Sacramento metropolitan area, and for that we are truly thankful. Your support of these endeavors means we can continue to provide excellent service to our customers and help some worthy organizations along the way.
It's only fitting that Thanksgiving centers around a delicious meal surrounded by friends and family. Food is my life. It's long been my desire to help people I meet to enjoy food as much as I do. Not just for the taste and sustenance it provides, but for the opportunity it holds to bring people together. Sharing a meal has been a social event since we first gathered in caves and celebrated a successful hunt. That remains true as we gather in our "caves" tomorrow to celebrate the blessings bestowed upon us over the past year.
Thanksgiving is a time for reflection. What are we happy for and for what shall we give thanks? Surely, it's our friends and family. But how about for the beauty that surrounds us but sometimes goes unnoticed as we lead our busy lives; the simple acts of kindness that reverberate outward like circular waves from a pebble dropping in a pond and touch others and inspires them to do something kind for another? How about being thankful for a stunning sunset or a wide smile and hug from your child?
Give thanks for those small things in life, for they add up to a life that's rich and fulfilling.
I am thankful for everything in my life, and that you are in it.
Be well and be safe this holiday season,
Joe Thompson
