sofa gratitude

i am grateful for:

1) having a comfy-comf sofa to settle into while i’m not feeling so great

2) my first attempt at cold noodles in peanut butter sauce. holla! or something chinese.

3) lunch with kz. so great to dive in with old friends straight to the heart of it all.

4) kukicha tea

5) feeling better today

6) mark bittman’s “how to cook everything vegetarian”

7) patient friends i owe emails and calls to

8) that b. is meaner/blunter than i–nicely telling the nanny down the hall that sitting in the hall for hours with a crying baby isn’t compatible with us working from home. i cringed and was almost like, “no, no, no, it’s fiiiine,” but was so glad to not have screaming baby sounds all day.

9) transforming t-shirts into cool creations with my sewing machine

10) deadlines

11) remembering the whole posse of disposable bags for yesterday’s big shop

12) organic bananas ripening to pre-smoothie fabulousness

13) ronnybrook farm’s maple yogurt

14) health insurance
