Using what’s already in the fridge

A simple meal made from what’s on hand. After eating, I take a book from the shelf and move to the sofa. Socks on. A blanket pulled close. The rest of the day can wait.

Starting the year with sugar

It’s already a new year. Each year seems to move a little faster. A glazed donut to start the day. Enough sugar to get going.
Baking madeleines again

I like the time spent baking, so I bake. I like bread made at home, so I bake. Sometimes going out to buy it feels like more work, so I bake.
That’s enough reason.
At the Museum

Sometimes a place brings its own kind of happiness. So does a painting. Time spent looking, without words.
A Board Game for the Holiday

Board games are part of the holiday every year. This one comes out without much planning. It stays on the table for a while.
Ending the Christmas Meal

Christmas has passed for this year. It wasn’t a showy dessert, but everyone finished the meal enjoying it.
Coffee in a Gingerbread Mug

December mornings call for a warm cup of coffee. A simple mug, a familiar smell, and a moment at the table.
Wrapping Presents

I don’t remember being like this before. I keep wondering if there’s anyone I might have forgotten.
Weekends and Sleeping In

A slow, happy weekend morning spent doing nothing. The best kind of happiness in the whole week.
