Red, White and Green

It dawned grey and damp but has changed into a warm afternoon.  This is the first time in many a year I have cooked for only two.  I found it really easy and relaxing.  When we used to camp at Christmas time I missed my garden.  Today I picked white hydrangeas for one vase and red roses and white hydrangeas for this jug.
This is written on the December page of my calendar:
If you look, you will find
with some certainty that joy
is in the spaces in-between.
May your heart be
made whole by the joy and
peace of the holiday.
