A Pinch of Joy

Eat Healthy, Do it Yourself, Live Well, Have Fun.

Busy Monday 655

Took the Christmas decorations down yesterday — all the garlands, swags and wreaths and, yes, the three Christmas trees.  It is always a joy when they go up on the day after Thanksgiving, bringing much needed light and cheer to the  the dreary winter.  It’s nice when they go back to the boxes after the holidays, because the house feels lighter and ready for the coming spring.  (Those three trees — the tall one takes up exactly 2 square feet of floor space in the living room nook and the other two display their 3 feet of light and glitter in the bedroom and the office.  And they store all decorated for next year!)  Love the seasonal reminders.  May you find joy in the season past and the season to come!  Thanks for stopping by to share your awesome work!

    Happy Tuesday! I am so excited to be looking at everyone’s recipe posts. I am going to be working from home starting next week, and that means I can cook for my family again! YAY! And it also means we are 1 week closer to time change. I can’t wait!
