Christmas Eve... and very early morning

[Ancienne Alliance]

This is this year's traditional Yule Log:






Placed upon it: bread, salt and sweet wine, symbols of the riches of life.






The youngest and eldest members of the family then place it in the fire.

The whole family chears «Allègre!», Joy!




Time to feast :












«...not even a mouse.»

All was ready for next morning... Tired but happy.

Thankyou for the photos Robert, although tired you appear to have started the festivities salubriously. Love the decanter you had on the table
