{This Moment} and an Invitation

{this moment} – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

  14. What a mouth watering spread — Good food almost always guarantees a great celebration! When I was young, I remember hanging out underneath my mom’s quilting frame while she worked on one of her amazing quilts. Wood quilting frames or dining room tables…kids just love having a “den” to call their own.

  16. that IS a great moment. Right before the guests arrive, when the banquet is set out–it’s always so exciting. Your post about the FEAST you prepared had my mouth watering. And I was chuckling–you really DID make all the most labor-intensive dishes! Can I come to Omar’s high-school graduation?
