a little something for the kids AAAHHH.... THE HOLIDAYS. FOR MANY OF US, ALL IT TAKES IS THE MENTION OF “FAMIILY THANKSGIVING” AND IN OUR MIND’S EYE WE SEE... THE KIDS’ TABLE! Remember the kids’ table? When we were growing up, we were relegated to our grandparents’ coffee table, and got to indulge in mini glasses of ginger ale (oh, the luxury!). But that was about the extent of the kids’ table festivities. Today, we think the experience can benefit from a little Garnish. After all, you’re only young once!
