Blessings and Grace

$15.50

Dating back to colonial times, the pineapple has

always been a symbol of warmth and hospitality.

It was common-place for a sea captain from New

England to sail the Caribbean islands and return home

with a cargo of fruits, spices and rum. To let his friends

know that he had returned safely from the sea, the

captain would spear a pineapple on the fence post

outside of his home. The pineapple was an invitation

to visit, enjoy the food and drink, and listen to tales of

the sea captains’ voyage.
