hi.
i hear noises from the dishwasher that make me fear there's a child crying somewhere in the house.
and then lindsey comes in and hugs me and walks upstairs with yet another clementine (the first box of the season) and assures me that if anna was crying, i'd know it.
i spent hours today cooking. it seems to be the one thing that i can do these days that both completely absorbs me and that i can do right.
tonight i made my friend tara's eggplant and onion and goat cheese tart. it was one of the more ambitious tasks i've undertaken recently. but i was inspired and it was worth it.
i can not wait for tomorrow when i get to eat the leftovers.
and i sent some home to the city with my niece, along with some potato leek soup.
and then tim and i cleaned up the kitchen, and set the house right again.
tucked anna in-i'm pretty sure tim is back up there now, asleep next to her warm little body.
and i can hear the big girls giggling and arguing alternately.
but they're home. and they're done with their day.
and they will most likely come downstairs two and three and four more times before i realize that they are just not going to bed until i am tonight.
and so i am. tonight.
and best wishes to you all.
xo,
tt
