I'd like you to meet
Eye Fieri, the latest addition to our household menagerie, come to sit between
Keurig and Kettle in amongst all the PINK.
She’s a gift from Caro, and will be supervising kitchen activities if I
don’t find her in the dollhouse, a fervent game of beanbag-toss, or Fuzzy-pup’s
bed. And I'd imagine she might be privy to and willing to part with a few of the delightful recipes from Mole's or Ratty's kitchen, especially if I divulge Caro's recipe for Candied Cricket. . .
It’s
been a busy week, getting ready for our little annual Christmas Tea last night,
and getting beds and house ready for three GRANDS, to arrive imminently to stay
the week, as their parents and the movers work on getting their new home filled
and settled before Christmas.
Snacks
and groceries and clay and paper and pens and paint and games laid in, beds all
fluffy and fresh, both guest room windows wide open to the wind chimes in this unseasonal breeze,
and the dishes from last night’s wonderful party soaking in the sink. Must get to my little doings, and when I
surface from all the hugs and hilarity, moiré non.
I
wish you all a wonderful week this Blessed Season, a week of preparation,
meditation, dedication, and all the love and grace and light your hearts can
hold.
Oh Rachel, I need the meditation part. I am flagging and getting crabby trying to do Christmas. Must try harder for kids and grands.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful !! You're very talented and creative !!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
I'm sure your lucky guests felt especially fortunate to bask in your charming company at last night's Christmas Tea.
ReplyDeleteWell, hello Eye Fieri! So lovely to meet you and how lucky you are to be taking up residence in such a fine household where you will be loved, fed, and cherished for eternity.
ReplyDeleteI adore hedgehogs (which Eye Fieri appears to be), and when I found out I was pregnant that was the first thing I purchased for my future little one, a fluffy hedgehog, which I named Hatfield as I had purchased it from Hatfield House, Queen Elizabeth I's childhood home.
Your party last night sounds like such fun, and I'm sure your grands will adore visiting. Much to prepare by the sounds of things.
Enjoy the week and upcoming festivities with them.
