Happy Thanksgiving

Potatoes are being mashed, turkey is being smoked, pies are ready, children are running around, beers and wine poured, mom is busy checking the last details of Thanksgiving lunch, while I quickly type this blog post before I get called into the kitchen to go scoop, slice, chop, serve… dine!

Take a shovel, hang it on the wall to make a shelf, take a old rusty tin can for your bouquet of feathers, leaves, wheat…

Thanksgiving bouquet.

My mother took a cylinder glass vase then added pomegranate seeds, mint, oranges and lemons then she put in a large glass ladle for water. My mom never misses an opportunity to make the things beautiful.
