The last thing I need right now is another project; in fact, I am working to pare down and jettison everything that isn’t really really necessary in my everyday life. And yet, perhaps because of that, I found the idea of Jessica’s 30 Tiny Moments Flickr pool irresistible. And so I’m in.
Charlie and I sat together this morning and shared a scone and a cup of coffee. Okay, he had the scone and I had the coffee, but the point is that we just sat and chatted and were peaceful together, for a whole fifteen minutes or so. And at the end of our snack, when my coffee was nearly empty and his scone was just a pile of cinnamon-y crumbs, he held up his cup of water and said, “I want to do a French toast!” And we clinked our cups and said CHEERS! and SALUT! and then we went off to read stories and look at magazines for a while.
It was a good Sunday morning.

We say “prost!” almost every night at dinner. It makes me smile.

Is that a homemade scone? If so, that’s something you could put the kibosh on. No more baking complicated yet delicious treats for my family.
Susan says: The scone was made by the fine baristas at Barnes and Noble. No cooking involved! I’ve already crossed that off my list.

So cute. Every thing and anything is better with the word “French” in front of it. French toast, French kiss, French Riviera, French multiplication table. Well, okay that last one’s a stretch. But, still….
