Before it was Kiahk, it was Khoiak.

The Nile had pulled back, the days had grown short and cold, and ancient Egyptians planted barley in beds of black silt shaped like Osiris. They watered them in the dark, and green shoots broke through, proof that life comes back after winter.

The Coptic calendar kept the month's name, and our tetas kept the ritual. A saucer, some damp cotton, a handful of helba or lentils on the kitchen windowsill, and a few days later, green.

We stitched those sprouts across this tablecloth, so the whole family can gather around them on the longest nights of the year.

Happy holidays.
