Yesterday,
in the morning my husband makes a lovely pot
of soup and another pot of pasta sauce
from the gifts of a generous harvest
shared by a dear friend<\/p>\n\n\n\n
later in the day, my daughter
makes some lovely pink jam from the quince
she has gathered in the garden<\/p>\n\n\n\n
while I am busy with the laundry
and waiting patiently (as the clean-up crew)
for my time in the kitchen to begin the process of
creating
a delectable birthday cake, as requested
for celebrating my daughter\u2019s birthday<\/p>\n\n\n\n
outside it is a cloudy day, with a strong breeze
blustering its way through the trees
and cool
making one quite thankful for a busy sort of day
spent
indoors
while in the laundry room putting the next load
in the washing machine
I look out the window at a brief
break in the clouds
a stream of sunlight softly putting a rather gorgeous
glow on things
in this golden spotlight
I can see a beautiful little nuthatch perched
on the rain barrel
for a drink and I think to myself,
this
might be just the perfect
fall day
to be here<\/p>\n\n\n\n
