So, this morning we did some experiments with the new chemistry kit and then I dropped Oliver off at his urban homeschool science class. I read a bit in the car, took a walk and bought a baguette at a crunchy granola hipster market. I bought some fancy French butter with sea salt, too, that was ridiculously expensive, and then I unashamedly smeared it on the baguette with my fingers in the car. I know that if I were sexy Nigella Lawson ya'll would think I was great and love her! but I'm just me, with sea salty buttery fingers and a half of a baguette in a brown paper sack in my white Mazda.
I LOVE THIS POST. I remember eating a small jar of salted caramel with my fingers as I drove after teaching a particularly grueling violin lesson.
ReplyDeleteNO SHAME.
Elizabeth! She buys French butter with sea salt and smears it on a baguette. With her fingers! While waiting for her equally cool son at his urban homeschool. How fabulous is she?! She is so grrrrreat! Love her!!!!
ReplyDeleteI do think you're fabulous. I really do.
Pshhht, Nigella Lawson. She's got nothing on you! (And for the record, this is exactly why I keep a stash of plastic utensils in the glove box of my car because you never know when you might need to smear something lovely).
ReplyDeleteBread and butter is one of the great tastes and great comforts in this world.
ReplyDeleteAnd....what were you wearing?
ReplyDeleteJeans and a black v-nect tee-shirt as per usual.
DeleteLOL -- Nigella of the STREETS!
ReplyDeleteThe way you write it? Sounds sexy to me.
ReplyDeletetry olive oil next time, but NOT in your car (or bring a plate) :)
