a weekend’s gratitude

This weekend was dinner with a favourite friend at a favourite restaurant;

breaking the rules and ordering cheesecake with chevre, berry dolloped and honey drizzled;

a morning surprise of an emptied dishwasher and cleared table thanks to the littles before Dan and I were even out of bed;

a thrifting trip for kid’s clothes with the added bonus of a wool blankets and sweaters for mama;

a lengthy mall lunch, a mishmash from across the food court, lingering long;

that late lending itself to a simple dinner of cereal and fruit;

laughing long and loud over a boardgame with friends;

busy Saturday making quiet Sunday all the sweeter;

hot bath, hot latte, hot scrambled eggs (the later two are usually cold when I get to them);

groceries postponed for more quiet;

laundry on the line, puzzles everywhere, a few minutes with a book;

now it’s kids settled, couch spot claimed, knitting at the ready, ahhhh.
