Breaking Bread

Lunchbox Buddies celebrated the New Year by breaking bread with old friends. 

  

Chapter One: January

And now let us welcome the New Year.
   Full of things that have never been.
            -- Rainer Maria Rilke
January, the month of new beginnings and cherished memories, beckons. Come, let winter weave her wondrous spell: cold, crisp, woolen-muffler days, long dark evenings of savory suppers, lively conversations, or solitary joys. Outside the temperature drops as the snow falls softly. All of nature is at peace. We should be, too. Draw hearthside. This is the month to dream, to look forward to the year ahead and the journey within.
-Excerpt from Sarah Ban Breathnach's Simple Abundance:  A Daybook of Comfort and Joy
