Heartening Up the Place

It always sadness me to take down the big nativity.

I had to find something to take it's place, and I had to find it quickly, because THGGM had 'ideas' for this spot.

Don't get me wrong, I love and respect his ideas. Mine are just better!

Actually, his are pretty good. But he is working on a project in the dining room, and I wanted to get out the old Valentine candy box and bring in the bowl of red velvet roses. What's a home without a bowl of red velvet roses, I ask?

I added the black and white picture just because I like it. When I get a migraine, I wish the whole world was in black and white. Or, black and khaki - even better.
