A Sunday roundup of random really good things, none of them writing related.


Theo is still young enough to wear a cape—and mean it.

He also uses the word "perhaps" in conversation.

We got almost three inches of rain last night, and the wind is still howling around the house, shaking the windows.

J and I went for a run today (five miles!) and coming through City Park along the river the path was flooded, so we had to take off our shoes and wade. The icy water felt soooo good on my feet.

The Maud is reading Anne of Green Gables.

I am reading I Capture the Castle (for the first time).

Hot Lady Grey tea with cream and sugar and a secret stash of shortbread cookies.

The lilacs are in bloom.

Last night I made spaghetti sauce with lots of garlic, and there’s plenty left for tonight’s dinner.

For mother’s day Theo made me a dragon fridge magnet. Theo, if you recall, is a vegetarian. The dragon is labeled “vegetarian dragon” and is breathing fire on a block of tofu.

I don't have anything else to do today but laze around, read with a cat on my lap, and eat spaghetti.

If you've got a Sunday random good thing, I'd love to hear it...
