Thanksgiving is almost here, and like many of you, I’m preparing for a long weekend full of family, feasting, and football.
Around the Lucey family table, there are a few essentials that make our Thanksgiving meal OUR Thanksgiving meal: green bean casserole made with cream of chicken soup (hold the mushrooms, PLEASE!), creamed pearl onions (if you’ve not had them, you’re missing out), and, of course, the two varieties of cranberry sauce (canned and homemade).
We’ll have both an oven-roasted as well as deep-fried turkey with plenty to share and even more for the next day. The leftovers just might be my favorite part of all!
The freshly prepared food is certainly a highlight, but what truly makes this time of year meaningful is the people I get to share it all with.
I’m grateful to be surrounded by great people in my life – by my family who supports me and by my team members who are all committed to helping our clients plan for a secure financial future.
As we get ready for another year’s Thanksgiving – tidying our homes, setting our places, preparing our food, and welcoming our loved ones – I hope you’re able to find moments for reflection and gratitude.
Take stock of your blessings, reminisce about the past, and dream for the future. Hold tight to the present while it’s here.
Thank you for being a part of our Secured Retirement family and trusting us to help you secure a future for you and yours.
Happy Thanksgiving!
CUP OF JOE
From Joe Lucey, Founder of Secured Retirement
There’s something about sitting down with a steaming cup of coffee that always kicks my day into high gear. And it’s not just because of the caffeine it sends coursing through my veins.
Throughout my career, some of my biggest revelations have come to me in conversation with my mentor over a cup of joe. Good conversation and personal connection can pick you up in a special way. It’s that feeling that I’m hoping to bring to you with my series, your Cup of Joe.
