Discovering the Magic of a Staycation
This year instead of a traditional vacation (leaving home for an extended period of time), we decided to enjoy a Staycation. A Staycation let us explore things nearby while sleeping in our own beds most nights. We had no real plans. And that added to the adventure.

This is now my forth year of looking back at recipes we’ve shared. Wow – four years is a long time, don’t you think? I’m so grateful for each and every person I have had the pleasure of “meeting” on this amazing journey through cyberspace. How I’d love to sit down and break bread with you in the real world. My faith tells me we will meet one day, if not in this world then at the banquet table in heaven.

A New Year? Oh yes, please! For so many of us, 2020 has been the worst of times, filled with unmeasurable heartache and overwhelming difficulties. For some the loss is physical – be it home, income or a love one. For others it’s been emotionally devastating with demons lurking in the darkness. My heart aches for the whole of the world this New Year’s Eve. The sadness is so profoundly deep.

Happy Holidays and Season’s Greetings are fine salutations for strangers in passing I suppose. True heartfelt greetings should never be a matter of political correctness.

Over the years, we’ve concentrated our Holiday Decorating to the inside of our home rather than the outside. At first I didn’t understand why that was and then I realized, Christmas is my holiday.

Welcome to my November Home. Many of the Thanksgiving decorations throughout our home are old. These are things we’ve collected over the years that speak to us and say “Welcome, please come in.”
