Allowance



I spoon black-eyed peas of the new year into Sophie's mouth outside under the sun, and while she is perhaps too old, too big for spooning, the yin/yang curve of the bean allows me to hear a leaf drop next to her.

Yep, me too, Elizabeth. How brave to strive for such perfection each day. So far, so good.

I am really liking this, Elizabeth. I want to do it, too. But not in my blog, in a notebook. Thank you for the inspiration.

LOVE it! Thanks for the inspiration as always. I hope your black eyed peas bring lots of luck to you this year!

Oh how I wish I had your poetic view of life. I was placing one kidney bean at a time in The Baby's mouth yesterday who kept signing "more more." All I could think about was, "boy, are you gonna be farting in the morning."
