Foodie Friday

This has been one of those weeks.

I haven't had time to set the table, so I pulled out an old tablescape. I had so much fun choosing the dishes and flatware, finding a tablecloth, planning the menu.

Was it just this past winter when I planned this meal?

I'd been writing and writing, but I had a life, too. Now it's just me and the book. It's hard to describe how something can just take over your life,

and suddenly you don't have time to unload the dishwasher.

 This has been one of those weeks where I found plot holes and things that didn't go together. I had to cut, paste, delete.

I do the same thing when I'm setting a table. Sometimes I can't see where I've gone wrong until I take a few photos. Then I'll realize the scale is wrong or I've used crazy colors. Sometimes I don't know what I've done wrong; I just know it looks horrid.

So I revise the tablescape.

I guess it's inescapable. We make errors because we're human. But God gave us the ability to try and correct those errors...even if it's a book or a tablescape. It helps us see that we are capable of fixing bigger problems in our lives.

The winner of the garden basket is--Alea Milham! Congratulations, and thanks to all who entered the contest and took the time to leave a message. I'll be hosting another giveaway soon. Alea, please send your address and I'll ship you a basket and a book.
