Color psychologists say red represents energy, passion, and motivation to act. Red is everywhere this season: Santa’s costume, cranberry dishes, poinsettias.
I’m seeing red too. In Ian’s Santa cap at the Orchestra Zoo . . .
In Mother’s cranberry fruit salad recipe which I took to a Christmas party at a friend’s house last week . . .
(Everything with the word Mom in it is my scribbling. The rest is in her own handwriting, a keepsake in my recipe box.)
Beautiful pots of poinsettias!
One more thing read at Christmas, the beautiful Christmas story from Luke 2:1-20
