My day was a frozen pizza for lunch and a bag of salt and vinegar kettle chips.
My day was a pair of socks cut apart, rearranged, and sewn into a sock monkey.
My day was making origami butterflies and paper planes.
My day was children fighting, then helping each other, then fighting, then figuring out how to leave each other alone, if only for a few minutes.
My day was getting rid of a desk to a fellow freecycler.

My day was wild rice soup made with apples picked from the neighbor's tree and goat gouda (which I don't think I like).

I think I'd like to spend a day with you and yours. I really really would.
ReplyDeleteToday I finished a book.
ReplyDeleteToday I cried wasabi tears.
Today I am baking, broiling, sauteing, etc., before all the veggies get too old.
My day has been pretty good. I got a bunch of uncomfortable work out of the way, received a job offer (maybe), drank too much coffee, went for a run, baked a wild-mushroom quiche, harvested the first tomatoes, made a tomato salad, drank a couple of glasses of red wine, and visited a few blogs... I'm happy.
ReplyDeleteMy day involved finding a house from which I brought a new tupperware lid for my lettuce crisper container after it had been punctured with "breathe holes" for a caterpillar. I found it on trade me for $2. problem solved.

Thank you for asking Molly :)
Your day sounds wonderful! Hmm, except maybe the children fighting part--that wears me down to nothing, fast! :)
ReplyDeleteMy day was being chased by a rooster, finding the garden sprinkler had been left on overnight, and a visit to the ENT. Not so great, but we did get 9 eggs--2 cracked, 1 blue--so I guess it wasn't so bad :)

I loved reading this post - your day sounds full of life!
ReplyDeleteUpon reflecting upon your words I have realized by 14 years have moved past the "fighting" stage and they rarely have a mean word to say to the other - hmm? I wonder when that happened. But, I am so thankful that I have noticed it.
Merci.
My day was great. I love the book in the last picture, by the way. Goodnight Moon was my favorite as a little girl!
ReplyDeleteI love this list of things in your day. I especially love your bright blue sock monkey and those salt & vinegar chips!
