my top 10 favorite things about today

1) lilacs. they are out now and they are divine.

2) watching fife lean accordingly as we drive around curves. she's so clever.

3) taking fife to the dog park. fun for both her and me!

4) running through the (unexpected) pouring rain with chad and fife at portland saturday market. we all looked like drowned rats but were laughing.

5) my caveman coversation with chad this morning:
me: do you think cavemen cooked their food or ate it raw?
chad: probably cooked it.
me: how do you think they go the idea to do that, put food over the fire?
chad: how do you think they got the idea to rub two sticks together?

Hmm, yes. Touche, Chad, touche.

6) french toast.

7) bunk sandwiches (for the first time!).

8) bridgeport blue heron.

9) driving a car to the store. in 1910, i would have taken horses and it would have taken hours.

10) all the interesting people in portland who aren't afraid to express themselves. the city is such an inspiration.
