I’m a little late with this, but couldn’t let this season pass without saying How much I appreciated this touching reflection on celebrating with family and friends. My entertaining is much less ambitious than it used to be (and I’m grateful for that!), but I am often wistful about the love and laughter of the past.
Thanks–and yes, Diane– at a certain age don’t we learn that being less ambitious allows us to continue life as it was–but with some well-thought-out tweaks?!
Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. Yes, passing the torch is very bitter sweet. I miss the days when everyone gathered at my table but I don’t miss the days when everyone went home and I still had to clean up the mess!
Appreciate your thoughtful comment and the reality of cleaning up! Also am enjoying following your blog.
