The pineapple has long been the symbol of hospitality. In the early settlements of Williamsburg, VA because of the expense of the pineapple, it was a symbol of special treatment if the hostess displayed one during your visit.
The pineapple is my favorite motif because it symbolizes for me the sense of specialness I want the people in my life to feel when they are in my home. What I do in my home ~ decorate, organize, work, teach, cook, clean, sew, plan ~ I do for the people in my life. It’s all about the people!
I desire that the pineapple will be the hallmark of my blog ~ that when you visit to “walk and talk” with me down Pineapple Lane, we will learn the essence of hospitality for the people in our lives.
Hi, Debbie.
I really enjoyed your podcast on Faithful Bloggers. I loved your advice about keeping all things in balance and deciding what you value and giving that priority. I needed to hear that.
Nice to “meet” you!
