don we now our gay apparel





Yesterday I made a quick run to a thrift store to look for a particular item - well...CATEGORY of item anyway.  I have a friend who has a collection, and I hoped to find a gift for her.  I was unsuccessful...

But I DID find this great Christmas apron, a couple of books in perfect shape (including a Curious George special edition) and the three pieces below.

Some of you know my penchant for collecting stray nativity characters.  I thought  it was "out of my system", but apparently not!

a wise man

a shepherd

Joseph, maybe?
 I'll wear this apron (which is even brighter in person)
at noon today when I serve up some soup and sandwiches at our final
Community Advent Luncheon.
See the sheep on the shelves behind me?  Another collection of mine!

    You are up early and busy today, Rebecca. Love the white pieces of Nativity you found. Yes, Advent is drawing to a close...I fear I have not kept it as I had planned.

    Hi Rebecca....I think you were meant to give the stray manger figures a home. Like your apron. My grandmothers always used aprons. I love them as they make me think of those dear ladies. Take care. Susan

    I always notice nativity pieces at the thrify stores. Baby Jesus is almost always missing. I ponder this.

    I wonder, too, why the baby Jesus is always missing...like Middle Child questioned! Thanks for stopping by and commenting on that very topic today at Jeremiah 29:11! HOPE you have a blessed CHRISTmas, Ms. Rebecca!!!
