All I did today was prepare food for our little barbeque in the yard. Whenever I draw or paint or play the piano or read ... there's this kind of silence in the mind. My hands just move, and I just keep going. Cooking and baking is just like that as well to me ... until cake batters flood over the pan in the oven or I burn the whole bottom of a stew. I also can't forget to mention that time when all the cookies slid off the pan as I carried it out of the oven!
But life felt really rustic today. There was a lot of sunlight, good laughs, clinking of ice cubes in glasses, smoky barbeque that gets all in the hair ... and food made from scratch in a kitchen where other family is there preparing food with you ... the whole day tasted like lazy summer.
Hey Linda, your pix are awesome! Sometime you should come over and take pictures of my birds! You'd like my white dove, Bubbie! -Jen Lee
