Wreath of the Day – Lenox Hotel Lunch Extravaganza

by

We thank Dan Donahue of The Lenox Hotel, a valued customer, who this year generously delivered an amazing spread of sandwiches, salads, breads, Greek specialties, and dare we admit it, wine and Prosecco, to The First Lutheran Church of Boston.  We didn’t crack open the wine on site, but enjoyed the other items and saved the rest for our end of week closing celebration, for those volunteers who were still hanging in there on Thursday.  We hope you will all take a moment to visit City Bar or one of the other tasty establishments at the Lenox this year and toast the holidays. Below is one of the (six!) wreaths we made for Dan this year, this one with a crown signifying he is a King to us.
