Of all the things COVID has taken from me thus far, I miss my parents and my in-laws the most. Victoria misses them keenly. I would wager one week out of every four, were spent with either one of them, pre-COVID. This year, the Christmas carol “Over the River and through the Woods” has really resonated with me.

I wish desperately we could take a jaunt over to my mother’s. If you follow me on Instagram, you know I’m in the middle of a tiny health scare. I wish I was at my mother’s house, listening to her tell me it will be okay. I’d love to be sitting at my mother-in-law’s table, as she made something delicious, chatting away with Vicky.

All that to say, this was the inspiration behind our Christmas seasonal table: A trip to Grandma’s house.

Here’s how you can recreate this yourselves:
