2/17: taking the time
...to make Shrove Tuesday pancakes even though it was a long day and we both had work to do in the evening. The lemon sauce turned out well, and I remembered just in time that last year I added za'atar to the crepes and it was good, so I did it again this year.
2/16: organizing
...a long shopping list to make the grocering smoother. (I know: obvious. But I usually don't do it, which leads to a fair amount of backtracking.)
2/15: getting out
...of a funk by making good-for-me (Jasberry) rice, taking a walk, watching the water, and beginning to listen to Love, Sex, and Frankenstein by Caroline Lea.
2/12: having
...lunch at home on a school day. It felt like a luxury to do course prep at home in the morning and make myself fried rice before heading in to teach.
2/11: posting
...the last of the poems for Heron Tree volume 12. There's still the PDF compilation of all the volume 12 poems to put together this summer, but tonight's posting marks the end of an era, since we'll be taking a hiatus from Heron Tree. Though Chris and I both need a break from being publishers, I'm glad we did it. It's something we had wanted to do for a long time, so now no regrets. I also learned a lot, made connections, and re-engaged poetry--things I'm grateful for.
