My second week of Treasures positive things that strike my fancy, things that make me feel happy or thankful or interested things that are worth remembering, even in just a few words.
Please feel free to start your own lists of Treasures, on your own weblog or here in the comments.
- staying up till 3 am, surrounded by sleeping kitties, to finish a good book
- reading a fun description of the Central Park Zoo (posted to one of my favorite mailing lists)
- finding more weblog memes to play with 🙂
- Eggs Florentine
- a perfect bowl of fruit firm yet tasty pears, ripe bananas, sweet grapefruit, crisp apples, juicy oranges, exquisite grapes
- a car transporting a load of extra long boards, the ends of the boards tagged for visibility using the red cloth zippered first-aid kit from the car
- Willy Claflin and Maynard Moose; Willy's new CD, Where Were you in '72?
- a raccoon in our front yard when we went out Sunday evening (at only 7:30!)
- cranberry margaritas (only available in December!)
- sharing lunch with one of my best friends
- sleepy kitties
- donating a practically unused set of the Encyclopædia Britannica to one of our favorite waitresses for her kids for Christmas
- catnaps
- Bebop, intently watching the kitchen sink, ears perked, every muscle tense until… bloop! the remaining water goes down
- An owl in the park across the street – Hootdeyoo hoo hoo
- Seabiscuit Way, the new designation for the 20 yards of intersection at the traffic light on Sneath Lane between the Tanforan Mall and the Towne Centre Shopping Center parking lots – one of the shortest "streets" I think I've ever seen!
- another raccoon on the back porch (on the sunroom roof). The kitties were most curious.
- A fungus amongus – the impressive batch of toadstools popping up in our front yard, starting out bright red and ending up chocolate brown, always shiny and ebullient
