Back at the Bergen County Historical Society for both their history open house and colonial concert. Was a colonial ghost making an appearance in the far bottom right corner? These mysterious lights showed up in all the photos I took in this room.
Right above the room, the temporary headquarters of George Washington, who stayed in the Steuben House while the army was encamped between Soldier Hill Road in Oradell and Van Saun Park in Paramus.
Back at the Black Horse tavern, soul-nourishing butternut squash soup with an herbed biscuit, $8, and hot mulled cider, $1.
Whimsical Dutch Santas in the gift shop.
A visit to the Dutch out kitchen is a must. Would it be wrong to want to live by candlelight alone?
Roasted brussels sprouts is quickly becoming one of my favorite vegetables of the season.
Notice the kitchen tools. Consider the labor that went into food harvesting and preparation. With no labor required on our own part in growing it, I think sometimes we take for granted the easy accessibility we have to food today, contributing in part, to food waste.
Not milk and cookies, but hay and apples. Why?
To attract the horses of Sinterklaas.
Mistletoe by the fireplace.
In the hustle and bustle that is inevitable this time of year, take time to savor your favorite traditions this holiday season. Merry Christmas!
