Right now I’m loving:
- This gift from my neighbor and its reminder that spring will come eventually
- Gaiters and long johns (since spring is no where near here yet)
- My wonderful neighbors—and their snowblowers
- These cookies (equally good made with coconut oil instead of butter)
- Seed catalogs (more spring dreams)
- Anne Lamott’s Small Victories
- My moka pot
- Our latest batch of chili (in a bowl with rice, as a dip for blue corn chips, or on homemade pizza)
- Seeing people joining me for Write What You Love
There’s still time time to join us. We start tomorrow! Sign up here.
What are you loving right now?
I am home thanks to some rough diabetes nights/days so I am loving the change of pace. And making soup. Just truing a new recipe for green soup and going to tackle another one called a healing soup. I do love making soup, the chopping is meditative.
Sounds like it’s healing in the making and the eating. Let me know how they come out—always love a new soup recipe. We’re going to have soup weather for quite a while yet. Hope you have a better night, but enjoy your change of pace.
From one person with Diabetes to another, try out this great low carb soup… I’ve made it with kale, mustard greens, collards, cabbage… Whatever I need to use up. Yum!

Thanks Margaret. It’s my son who has diabetes & I could not pay him to eat a green soup- but can keep modelling it.
Right now I am loving bookstores. Going to a bookstore is like going to the airport with no destination picked yet. In one minute you could be in Germany during WWII or in Outerspace with your only company a 13 year old taking over the world. I love the smell of new, unopened books mixed with the obligatory bookstore café.
Opening a new book reminds me of tasting a food I have never had. You have no idea if you will like it or not but something about it has interested you enough to pick it up and gorge yourself on it if it’s good or reject it if it does not please your palette.
The crisp sound of pages being turned in a hardback is like stepping on dried up leaves in the fall. A paperback has pages that sound like the fluttering of birds wings. In a bookstore the flipping of pages creates a beautiful symphony.
AHHHH bookstores!
Kerin, I love bookstores too—such a treat to get to browse and discover.
YES to bookstores. worked part time in a local one last year and loved it. I still run their teen book club now just for fun.
