I didnt get signed up to do a Tablescape this week, but setting the holiday table is such a part of creating the tone for the meal that it is always fun to share anyway. On Sunday we celebrated Channukah with a Festival of Light dinner, however we celebrated with the added joy of knowing that Jesus, Messiah, is the Light of the world. The tone was set by the lighted candlabra I purchased last year during our Beth Moore study of the Tabernacle. I think the symbolism of the Old Testamest feast is so very pertinent to our Christian understanding today!!
Earlier, on Saturday night, we had a simple spaghetti dinner to welcome the kids home for Christmas.
Yesterday we had a huge breakfast in the sunroom.
Lynn made his special buckwheat pancakes, delicious with freshly homemade cranberry sauce, and I made poached eggs and sausage.
My 85 year old mother will not be outdone!. She had me over for lunch last week and had set this sweet table!
Christmas such a festive, wonderfully fun time of year!
