autumn with Christmas lights up outside already, the tree in place in our reception area, and bits of ornamentation around the office.\u00a0 But before we dive headlong into Christmas, we paused \u00a0just long enough to give Thanksgiving its due.<br \/>\nThanksgiving is my favorite time of year, mainly because it\u2019s not fraught with pure commercialism.\u00a0 It\u2019s a time for reflection, and giving thought to what we have and appreciate the gifts given by God each and every day.\u00a0 Thinking back on how Thanksgiving began, with the Pilgrims and Native American Indians coming together and sharing what they had, to create a meal to give thanks for all that had happened leading up to that moment.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s the same today, just in a different environment and over 500 years later.\u00a0 That we can share, love, and laugh together are the things that make life meaningful.\u00a0 We at Hissho are so grateful for our teams around the country who make us proud, our staff who share the same mission, and a CEO who leads by example.\u00a0 We are truly blessed, and stopping to acknowledge this is paramount to our continuing success.<br \/>\nEach year we celebrate Thanksgiving by sharing a delicious meal together.\u00a0 Some years we prepare everything ourselves, some years we have it catered, and for the past two, our generous CEO has treated us all.\u00a0 This is so appreciated in that all we had to do was show up, eat up, and clean up.\u00a0 Seems so simple until we remember who made it happen.\u00a0 In pausing to give thanks to the ones who prepared it, the one who paid for it, and the teams who cleaned up, our gratefulness became boundless.<br \/>\nThanksgiving is now in the rear view mirror, but should always be in the periphery.\u00a0 We at Hissho hope yours was wonderful, and we\u2019re sure it was if you had a platter of our delicious sushi to share.\u00a0 If not, be sure to order your platters for the Christmas holidays and New Year\u2019s.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/hisshosushibeer.bar\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2016\/11\/Thanksgiving1.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"
