ON THE BACK BURNER

This is my "I love" list. Everyone that I love, knows that I love them. This list is not about people or pets. I love them all, mostly unconditionally. (Mostly) I have a list of things that I love and I make no apologies for them. I love fried chicken. Love it. The pottery that a friend makes and gives to me. Cook books. They are like non fiction novels to me. The alpen glow that I only see at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colorado. Alpen glow is that reddish glow on mountain tops just before sunise or after sunset. If you haven't experienced it, go to a moutain town and watch for it. The smell of freshly mowed grass. I inhale and try to keep that breath in me . Road trips. I can be in the car in less than an hour. A PB &J sandwich on super soft, cheap, un-artisan, white, sliced bread that has been carried in a back pack on a hike in the Rocky Mpuntains, all smashed and warm. This is gourmet food at its best. I love it when I can undo something nuts that I did on my computer. I love to iron. It's mindless and leaves room for lists like this. I love to polish tarnished silver. This last is an indicator of the kind of house I keep. I love an audience for my blog. I am just in a loving place right now. i wonder how long it will last. It's a little scary.
