Shopping is mostly finished, Christmas cards are ready to be addressed, and so on. Our daughter and her boyfriend arrive on the 12th, and so I want to be "done" by then so I can just enjoy their company. We will do all of the decorating this weekend, other than the tree, which we are saving for their arrival. So excited!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08490533253436208034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-59498346416587599942020-11-25T12:11:48.597-08:002020-11-25T12:11:48.597-08:00No place like home - more important than ever thes...No place like home - more important than ever these times ! Your red dishes are so fresh with greenery. I am adding Christmas decorations because they help through these dark weeks and covid restrictions. New tighter ones are coming tomorrow in the Helsinki region meaning no family reunions and all public places shall be shut forabout three weeks. So, cosy home is a real blessing.riitta khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00846480905422316167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-35310081725847818512020-11-25T09:26:45.636-08:002020-11-25T09:26:45.636-08:00Those fruitcakes look beautiful!

Canadians are so sensible to celebrate Thanksgiving earlier than we in the US do. Kind of spreads things out a bit more. We will set up our tree on Saturday as we usually do. You're right, a cozy home is especially important now during these difficult times. xo DeborahDeborah Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366855994841922862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-59211173810032076902020-11-25T07:15:07.957-08:002020-11-25T07:15:07.957-08:00Lorrie, I'm certain the Christmas Fruitcake yo...Lorrie, I'm certain the Christmas Fruitcake you made was much more than just edible. :)<br />"No Place Like Home" link up sounds wonderful and this (as so many of your posts) celebrates the comfort of the home.<br />I'm definitely thinking about Christmas and gradually preparing it.

The homestead burned down a few years ago so there is no 'home' there anymore-but OH! the memories of that time of life. <br />I love your red dishes. Not sure I will drag my Christmas china out this year-we'll see. I have gone ahead and decorated -for the first time ever before Thanksgiving.
