Ramble(s)

This evening I am having so many thoughts. Some rambles if you will. I am in the mood to make popovers. I think I have seen recipes for popovers everyday this past week. My mixer came with a recipe, I think I will try it. Today I came up with a little idea for a salad, I think we must have it tomorrow nite so that I can stop thinking about it. Mixed greens, grilled chicken, chickpeas, sun dried tomatoes, feta. I need to re-organize my jewelry/scarf drawer so that I can take a picture and post it on here. Yesterday we had a long discussion about schools. I am even more excited now at the new direction we are considering. Friday nite I went up to my cousin's house. I always love the drive. Especially on a Friday evening when the sun is setting. Something about driving on Friday evenings at dusk. I felt so happy the next morning driving home. Content. Found a cd in the glove compartment I hadn't listened to for years. Brought back a million memories. Of course. Saturday I bought earrings-a pair of owls and a pair of flowers. I am aching for spring for too many reasons but the most important being a rain storm. Throw in some thunder and I promise to be forever grateful. I cannot believe that I have baked the following since September: chocolate chip cookies, 3 tarts, 1 apple pie, 1 pumpkin pie, double layer chocolate cake with butter cream frosting. All from scratch. And I have never really baked before September. Last week I listened to full albums on Pitchfork at work. It made the days so much better. Since words have been consuming me lately, a word that has been bouncing around in my head: haricot. When I was little, I thought it was a fancy way of saying apricot :)
