Quote of the day:
“I had learned to find equal meaning in the repeated rituals of domestic life. Setting the table. Lighting the candles. Building the fire. Cooking. All those soufflés, all that crème caramel, all those daubes and albóndigas and gumbos. Clean sheets, stacks of clean towels, hurricane lamps for storms, enough water and food to see us through whatever geological event came our way. These fragments I have shored against my ruins, were the words that came to mind then. These fragments mattered to me. I believed in them.” - Joan Didion, A Year of Magical Thinking.
Silly joke of the day:
What do you call a guy lying on your doorstep?
Matt.
Three Good Things
Sent one of the birds out of the nest and back to Melbourne today.
Bought some cotton yarn half-price.
A very pretty golden hour this evening.
What are your Three Good Things for today?
Best wishes and squishes to you and your people,
Pip
