Macro Mondays, "Best with Holidays is......"

Best about Holidays are the memories made with family, traditions, traditional foods, gifts that are kept for a lifetime (such as decorations made/given by my sons, and students). Of course the best part is the time to sit and reflect the meaning of Christmas or Chanakkah, or Kwanza, .... MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATE OR VISIT MACRO MONDAYS! Peace be with you.

 

I love to collect and display Nativity items. They remind me of our travels. Some items such as the one in this photo, remind me of my ancestral roots.

This 'ornament' comes from Sicily, it is a ceramic Nativity Scene inside an amphora/wine bottle/oil bottle/..... It is a common touristy item found in Ceramic Shops in Sicily..
