just because the sky turned from gray to blue
for once i get out of bed when i wake up, don't go back to sleep. it is before dawn. i pull on a skirt, walk downstairs, tip-toe, scuttlebutt. the sun comes up and i make yerba matte in the big blue mug, read about starting seedlings indoors, open the shutters in the front room so the sunlight can pour in. i am drinking a chunky green-pink-blue smoothie (1 orange, 4 peach slices, a handful of blueberries, chunk of ginger, spinach, kale, a few grapes), and this sense of possibility just rises inside me. it feels nice to feel capable, it feels nice to take the morning to think slowly, to move with purpose, to consider the tasks at hand for today. to not squander away my time, and yes, i think the blossoms on the trees and the blue-sky is helping fuel this sense of awakening.
also, i think in a dream i explained to someone what nif (nutritional yeast) is. and why it's so tasty on popcorn. quite a strange dream, really, and all i remember is the bit about popping pop-corn. also i like the word pop-corn because the word is exactly what happens. POP! corn. popped corn? yup...this sounds like a great mid-morning snack! also i am going to try to use up some leftover not-so-tasty (but still OK) dhal by making lentil burgers. if only i had bread crumbs. yesterday i made fudgyfudgy brownies that will taste so delicious with vanilla ice cream. if only i could afford vanilla ice cream. instead, last night, after got dropped off at my house, wine-drunk and a pleasant level of stoned, i mixed equal parts brownies and milk in a bowl, ate it up like cereal, de-fucking-licious. and the best chocolate milk to drink out of the bottom of the bowl.
