cookies

My first free Sunday in a while. What have I done with it, so far? I got up when I felt like it, made quinoa for breakfast. I walked over to the community garden around 11 but no one was there, so I took myself for a stroll along Quint, Maddox, Bridgeview, and the planet streets. After about an hour I was home again. I did a load of laundry and hung it out back, played the piano.

Eventually I turned on the game and baked double chocolate cookies.

It has been a very good day. Now the curtains are tangled up in the late afternoon wind. I am sitting on the couch listening to Rosalyn Tureck play Bach partitas.

I cleaned up most of the cookie-making dishes but not all. The duvet cover and the featherbed cover are flapping on the line, mostly dry. The peaches are almost all off the tree. I can't easily reach the ones high up and/or at the back of the tree, but I can probably go a few more days without having to buy fruit. I ate or gave away more this year than last, but ended up composting too many -- the ones that fell and did not get picked up until they were too bruised and mushy.
