“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” ~ Alexander Graham Bell
Earlier in December I shared my great-grandmother Laura Belle DEMPSEY née INGRAM’s glass relish dish shaped like a leaf and a bunch of grapes.
Several readers said they would like to see a photo of it with my homemade Santa Fe Cranberry Sauce.
Since we are taking it easy after all the feasting I thought this would be a great filler, pun intended, until next week.
Wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year.
