Remember how I said I love Instagram – the fun app that makes your phone pictures look all retro? And I told Jeannett that if I ever actually had a blog, I couldn’t wait to link up to her InstaFridays – since I was always so inspired by her and Julie’s snapshots of their weeks.
So, here’s my first chance to do it. And yes, it’s Saturday, not Friday. Late Saturday. My excuse is Thanksgiving. That and the fact that I spent the whole evening playing this with the family …
Before that I was busy making a mess of the kitchen cutting these up
Super deliciously good pomegranates.
Super expensive in the stores, which is why we never buy.
We’re still working on the huge bag of them that our friends brought to us last week.
It’s good to have friends. Friends with exotic fruit connections.
This was our Thanksgiving centerpiece,
with lots of added leaves scattered over the table by the eager-to-decorate girls.
And these mashed potatoes were the hit of the night.
Made from scratch. One of the very few things that were 😉 They were so worth it.
We left the peels on, by request, and I think it made them even better.
We finished up the leftovers tonight. In record time.
Meanwhile, here’s what it looks like outside our front door.
It’s truly breathtaking. I’d like to just press pause here for awhile.
Hope you’re having a blessed weekend!
(Psalm 116:7)
