Ah, finally, a chance to sit down. What a crazy day. First I overslept by an hour, the room dark with the rain of this fall day, then the usual rushing to get out of the house, to find wet dark city streets and overheated buses, full of fellow passengers slowly steaming dry. Work today was hectic and non-stop and being an hour late certainly didn’t help the matter. But now finally I get to sit down and re-focus back on me.
Sitting here with my hand written recipes strewn around me is like sitting down with a group of old and cherish friends, each one reminding me of a great meal, an important occasion, a moment of joy or loneliness throughout the years. It really is like coming home, comfortable and familiar. I promised myself I would start transcribing my recipes last night and I did, a promise made and a promise kept. Tonight, I am continuing. With luck, the memories of each recipe will not still my fingers for too long as I work through them. I hadn’t expected this to be so nostalgic.
Jamie I am absolutely loving this!! I laughed out loud when you had to go eat two banana muffins due to your overwhelming new software. I would have eaten 6...hahaha!!!
