On the Brain


Browsing my iPhone photos the other day, I detected a theme.



Mmm, authentic enchiladas.
Sure was nice having the Delgado family in town.



The only thing better than a café miel at Quills...

...is a café miel at Quills with Kristen.
(She's looking a tad grainy here -- no fault of her own.)



After living in My Own Place for six months, I finally bought a kitchen table and decided the inaugural meal warranted commemorating. In case you're wondering, that's a mug of homemade baked beans, and the jar of milk is the closest to farm fresh I can get.

This meal made me think of Gramma, for no other reason than that I sprinkled my eggs with herbes de provence gleaned from her kitchen cabinet after she passed away last summer. It occurred to me as I enjoyed my little supper that Gramma would have been an avid Craigslister had she known how to use a computer, and she would have been proud of me for talking the previous owner of my "new" table into selling it for $40 instead of $50.



Java doesn't brew my favorite coffee in town, but they do serve it in my favorite misshapen turquoise mug.



This is peanut butter and jelly. Literally.
It made for a good midnight supper after a long day of work.



Rainy Sunday afternoons are for coffee, cookies, and parables.

And also red shoes.

First Day of Spring



"Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection,
not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time."

and will be lemon cupcakes in the next."

Quote of the Day


It was too cold to go out
It was too wet to play
So we both sat inside
On that cold, cold wet day.

-The Cat in the Hat, by Dr. Seuss

It's been raining all week.
