More decorating!

I've done the shop, up and out early this morning so it wasn't bad at all. Apart from buying a huge bundle of parsley that turned out to be coriander when I got home I am feeling quite organised. I've even set the table! To have enough room for everyone to sit involves putting two tables together. I have never in all the various places where we've lived managed to have one generous table that seats everyone. It has been on my wish list. The fault is my own because I'm not prepared to lose my grandmother's walnut table, my parents' table and the little kitchen one that we've had all our married life. So, no space for a big one! Instead we drag in a bit of garden furniture and 'make do.'
I've added some more dangly bits from the light fitting. More is more at Christmas!
Even the slightest bit of sunshine is welcome at this time of year.

  1. Oh that is lovely. A proper Christmas that I miss so much. If I got on a plane right now I could possibly make it in time :) . How wonderful to have your Grandmother's walnut table. Are some if those cards old ones. I still have one written by my father who died in 1982 and several with robins
