Artful Living
Thankful
November 27, 2008
Today, I am thankful for you. I am grateful for the tall oak trees “giving us nature, beauty, strength, life and wisdom”- the above oak leaf and acorns bring Joy to my table. They set the “Perfect-Beginning” for this day full of grace. Joy sent these to me.
Here is my table that I had so much fun setting.
For the place cards, I cut oak leaf, and leaf shapes and painted gold on the edge, then tied them to small pumpkins with bias binding.
Today we have two tables set for a bountiful feast, Turkey and all the trimmings!
This table is for the “grown-ups” but truth be told, I will never grow up!
Outside on my back porch, the beverages are chilling and ready for a thirsty bunch. Cheers to each of you who brighten my day with your comments, your e-mails and your energy! Break bread, say grace and raise your glass to one another and give thanks! Chin Chin! I have some very special desserts which I shall share with you friday. To those of you that are unable to be with family, I will think of you too. Happy Thanksgiving today.
