It really is that time to start thinking about Advent. That doesn't mean you need to decorate for Christmas if you are not ready for that yet. But, if you want to be intentional about the Advent season, it's time to figure out your plans.

Growing up, Advent wasn't anything more than a special reading and candle lighting at church on Sunday. But when we began homeschooling and I realized all the opportunities that I now had with my children, I knew that this could be a time of the year rich with the Gospel and the story of Jesus's birth.

That was over a decade ago and we continue to take the opportunity to grow in our faith each Christmas season as a Christian homeschool family.

Today, I am sharing a few tips that I learned along the way so you can embrace this time of the year!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
