Jay's home!
he came to Seattle to cover the Boise State - University
of Washington game. he was able to stay behind for a
little visit, but that didn't mean
day's off quite yet, as he had, editing and production
to complete, for a half hour
show that occurs on Sunday nights at KTVB.
before, i could pick up, we jetted
out of the house for an "all you can eat
Dungeness crab feed". i thought that i would show you a
little of the "real deal", before i toss the pop
can and start tidying the table this morning!
our little table for four fed our family of four for over
25 years. yesterday, it was about a different kind of "feed"!
from the farm table to Boise!
it's function has officially hit high tech!
i know the temporary clutter may bother some people,
but i love it when the table is multitasking.
this is the heart of our modest home! well fed, creative
minds and hearts sat and continue sit at this old table.
our tiny grand children have actually sat "on"
the table a time or two. Chrislyn and Jay did not have desks
in their bedrooms. the homework and study happened
here. their rooms were a retreat for reading and sleeping.
as you can see, i still have my herb drying and
flower pressing going on!
it's time to tidy up, make breakfast, and bake desserts
for a picnic on Lake Sammamish this afternoon!
all of our babies will be together!
i couldn't be happier!
it's a perfect Labor Day of love!
...and i wish you all the same!

Good morning precious Lynne. Your table is evidence of the community of family that lay out their work, their loves, the chats and laughter that can only be gathered in such a feast. Enjoy this Labor Day, and thank you for all the inspiration and kindness. Anita

ReplyDeleteA messy table means a home and I think it's wonderful. The crab fest sounds delicious. XO Laura
ReplyDeleteOh, I love a multitasking LIVING table. Ours has so many looks and they're all so special. I remember the times when my husband used to draw anything our children asked for hours after dinner. Now it's college papers and laptops. It's still divine to me...a table for four too.
