This Christmas Dan was very excited about displaying his grandmother's creche in our house. He had fond childhood memories of it, but for several years the nativity scene had been boxed up and stored away at his aunt's. So a week before Christmas, seven shepherds and their flock of 41 sheep, three wise men with their camels and camel boys, Mary, Joseph, trees, mountains, and barn animals were unpacked and arranged in various locations in our humble abode.
Needless to say, I did realize the size and scope of this nativity scene.
Today is Epiphany, and the three wise men will be moved over to the manger. Tomorrow we are celebrating the day with Galette des Rois from Bay Bread Boulangerie, and brunch with our families at Chez Arrow.
Speaking of the beagle, we gave her a breath-freshening parsley stem yesterday. I was surprised when she gobbled it up right away! I didn't think she would like it.
See the green stem in her mouth?

Not much crafting going on...started physical therapy and hope the exercises will enable me to do a bit of knitting soon...am trying to be patient...
Here are a pair of earrings my friend Pamela made for me with mother-of-pearl beads I got months ago at Forbeadin'. Dan's mother made the poinsetta placement.
Happy Epiphany!
