And 2022 is underway! And what better way to kick-off the season on December 1st than with “ADVENT”? Most of what we do is silly or secular, but it’s always good to ground ourselves in what the Christmas season is truly all about, the expectant waiting for the coming of Christ.

From a menu centered around Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love to beginning the “Honest Advent” devotionals to even some more whimsical elements including chocolate advent calendars and advent wreath toss, we made little moments throughout the day to tie into the advent season.

  • HOPE Breakfast Bar

  • Pea Soup (PEACE)

  • Heart Shaped Grilled Cheese (LOVE)

  • Homemade Almond JOY Truffles

  • Turkey (Advent) Wreath
