Quotidian: daily, usual or customary;

Leftover poinsettias from church: my daughter scored again.

Iced.

Wintertime color pops.

A broken back saves time.
(Or something like that.)

Mellow vs. high-strung.

Breakfast state of the union.

One hundred percent phonetic: his journal.

A serious conversation revolving around potential marriage partners.

Morning rummy with my boy.

Coordination.
(The raised eyebrow helps.)

What we eat when the kids are gone.
Him: fried eggs, pan haus (the neighbors butchered again!), bagel.
Me: buttered popcorn with salt and nutritional yeast and seltzer with apple juice.

Gone parents: a fun read.
This same time, years previous: hobo beans, in which it all falls to pieces, rocks in my granola and other tales, what you can do, first day of classes, and then we moved into a barn, the quotidian (1.23.12), five things, housekeeping, corn tortillas, grumble, grumble, flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, pink cupcakes in no particular order, capturing the moment, and baked brie.

We recently had a standoff because my husband happened to find me reading part of a book he was in the middle of. He noted that i obviously was blind to the aura of an already-being-read-book. I agreed that, indeed, I was and he needed only to say sweetly to me, "hey, would you please give me my book now so I can read it?" But apparently, at that point, the aura would already be ruined for him so I needed to just take note of which book he was currently reading and not start reading it too.
Needless to say, I showed him this photo.

are you literally reading the book the same time as your husband? That's hilarious. I'm definitely suggesting that to my husband – far more interesting than sitting side by side watching a movie. heeeee he!

Yes! It was so fun. I was ahead of him so every now and then I'd peek around the book and ask what his latest theory was.

I can't even remember any book that both Larry and I have read, let alone at the same time!
