Blessings Mix

Blessing Mix (pictures from Sally)
  • Bugles: shaped like cornucopia or Horn of Plenty...a symbol of our nation's abundance
  • Pretzels: arms folded in thanks and prayer
  • Candy Corn reminds us that during the first winter, the pilgrims were only allowed 5 kernels of corn a day because food was so scarce
  • orange slices or dried fruit: remind us that Thanksgivin is the celebration of the harvest
  • peanuts or seeds--the potential of the bounteous harvest for the next season
  • m & m's: memories of those who came before us to lead us into a blessed future
  • hershey's kiss: the love of family and friends that sweetens our lives
