Here we go FIVE. Heat version.

1. Cat and Becca making crépes in my kitchen for a goodbye brunch for Jocelyn.  Strawberries, mango, and cream on top.

2. Fresh basil in eggs.  (Hey, this is turning out to be about food again!)

3. Leafy saying, "I'm a CUDDO monster!" (cuddle monster) in his best monster voice.

4. Singing together.

5. That moment when the fans come back on after being off all day because of a planned power cut.  It's a hallelujah moment, a blissed out sigh as we turn our faces up and the moving air helps that sweat on our upper lips to dry off.

This will not be the only way I write forever and ever, but right now it is helping me to post daily, something I haven't done for quite some time.  Maybe that's number six.

It is hard for me to imagine the need for a fan. Weather is funny like that. Whatever you are experiencing is your reality. Sometimed we will be all covered over in fog and I believe the whole world to be so. In reality though, if I would only walk a couple hundred feet up our steep driveway I would be in the sun!

Your grace in small things posts are both entertaining and inspiring. We all need to cultivate a better attitude of gratitude. I think that's my way of saying it's not bothering me that these are the posts we're getting from you these days! Keep yourself in the flow of grace.

Hello!
I've been meaning to tell you that I enjoy reading your "tweets" as well as your posts, and I especially love your latest tweet. So I decided to write you a limerick:

Around the whole world great laughter was heard
As Kid A said to Yaya “Let’s draw a big turd.”
Mum said “Draw something happy,”
As she changed Solo’s nappy,
So they made the sun poop on a bird.

Sorry about the British/Aussie use of Mum and nappy (instead of diaper). "Mama" was one syllable too much, and it's awfully hard to come up with a rhyme for "diaper." I'm also upset that I didn't get Leafy in there somehow, I guess I'll have to write him a limerick of his own one day to make up for it.

(Hope I made you laugh, and I hope you have a joyful day)
