1. Sitting next to my daughter at the kitchen table on a Saturday night while she writes out her Fancy Nancy birthday party invitations.
2. An amazing dinner we had out at Macaroni Grill last night (thanks to a gift from my husband’s theater kids). If you go, try the Penne Rustica and the Lemon Passion cake. Oh. My. God. Both so tasty.
3. Our new home is an adorable little historic cottage. This felt like our first almost-normal weekend day here. Coming soon: we finish unpacking and have a “real” normal day. I cannot wait.
4. The Internet. My friend Kristin Bair O’Keeffe, author of the debut novel Thirsty from Swallow Press, is giving a talk at the Shanghai Literary Festival about how writers can benefit from social media right now in Shanghai, China. It’s amazing how easy it is to keep up with a friend in Shanghai, China. Thank you Internet!
5. The weather. What a gorgeous spring day we had today with trees in their full blossoming glory. At a local outdoor mall the other night, the dogwoods were blossoming with their holiday lights still on. Three cheers for spring.
Keep the good stuff coming, March. That’s all I can say…
