I got a delicious iced coffee recipe from a friend but made the mistake of drinking a cup too late in the day Sunday evening. I was wired past 3AM! Them eyes just kept a poppin' open and my brain refused to shut down. During that time I thought up a truly inspired blog post, which I cannot remember a word of now- not even the subject matter.
So my blog sits dormant. What can one write about when one is spending days slogging through endless cooking, cleaning, laundry, bookwork and such like? Hosting 25 guests on Sunday was a gesture of guilt for not having company more often and 'host family' is a wonderful system for pushing us to get it done? I added spring cleaning to my schedule today? My crocuses are blooming? [Hooray for spring!] After 3 years of cookbooking, I am finally scrapbooking our regular photos again- and 2004 seems like an eternity ago? We tried spinach smoothies [JS got the recipe from his biology teacher] and it's really not as disgusting as it sounds, albeit there is a certain "healthy" flavor to it. Nope, no one is interested in that stuff. I was raised on conventional wisdom like "When you don't have anything to say, don't say anything" hence a dormant blog.

Yay for crocuses!!! I wish I was there to see spring come bursting out. That's just the best time of the year.
And silence is sometimes necessary. I wish you much happiness in the beauty of your ordinary life.
Being in a rut is not all bad. When things go haywire and life is upset, I'm soon wishing to be back in my comfortable old rut. Ordinary days are a blessing even if they aren't much to write home about.
