Now it's Winter!

Let's celebrate Winter, by using the three main food groups:

Meat Henge or Porterhouse Steak Henge
Potato Henge or Chip Henge
Beer Henge
😹😹😹
Am thankful that there are others out there, with the same sense of humor as my own, making Stonehenge replicas out of whatever is on hand!

P.S. The Hubby and I are vegan (plant-based), although our three carnivores get only canned cat food; the best that we can buy AND that they'll eat.

Winter solstice 2022 in Northern Hemisphere was yesterday.

Many ancient henge sites are mysteriously aligned with the sun on the winter solstice, such as Stonehenge, UK and Newgrange, Ireland.

Yule

As a religious holiday, the winter solstice is also known as Yule, and celebration
of this day predates Christianity. 

While Druids, Romans, and Norsemen all celebrated the sacred nature of the solstice centuries ago, many modern Pagans and Wiccans consider
this an important religious holiday.  

A yule greeting to you all:

"The light is reborn this winter solstice, may your heart lift with the joy of new beginnings and nature's blessings."
