One thing is not affected by Covid-19. The calendar continues to change months right on schedule despite the ugliness of the world we live in today. And regardless of the frightening prospects of what the next several weeks will bring. (Please do NOT post any political comments.)
At our house the change in the calendar brings a smidgen of “normal” cheer to our kitchen. The end of October means the boo towels are out!
Several years ago, my friend Millie gave me towels and candy dishes for all the major holidays. My husband dubbed the Halloween towels the boo towels for obvious reasons. They are an indicator that fall is truly here. While this year won’t have the same activities as usual, we have the boo towels and, of course, the pure sugar candy pumpkins that I love!
I can’t predict with any certainty what the rest of the year will bring or where we will celebrate the holidays that follow. Or what 2021 will bring. I only know that where I can control things it will be true that the boo towels will be followed by turkey towels, Christmas ones, heart embroidered terry cloth, Easter egg clad towels and shamrocks. That much I am sure of.
I’m wishing you a smile today and praying for better days ahead!
I join my prayers with yours. Our amazing God, precious families and dear friends do cause our hearts to rejoice in our many blessings.
What a day brightener! Thank the Lord for simple pleasures and wonderful friends.
Love the “BOO” towels! We’ve decorated our fireplace with lighted pumpkins! It’s so important that we celebrate life as best we can, especially in these times! Here in the New Orleans area we are facing another hurricane, another full moon this month, Halloween and a time change 🤣🤣🤣. 2020 just keeps on being 2020! Enjoy your pumpkin candy, it’s the small things that keep us smiling. Love ya sweet friend👻👻🥰🥰
Love reading your blog. Today I turned another leaf. I always remember you on this special day. Miss you and Dr. Jim.
You do bring a smile to my face. Love your boo towels. So positive to focus on what we can control… love you! Be well!
