Today is...
* A homemade nettle chai day... iced with honey almond milk. Without question the most delicious thing I have tasted in days (see below.)
* Our first full day on our version of "normal" food after abandoning the GAPS intro diet when the sight of a bag of lettuce brought me to tears and my children were begging to eat lemons. (It'll take us a while to get over those few long days of soup, stew, and broth from morning 'till night. Today when I poured my chai Sage recoiled and asked, "Mama, is that broth?!")
* A day with my family off on a quick adventure while I spend some quality time with my grandma's sewing machine, completing (I hope) two quilts to donate to Craft Hope's Project 13. (You might recognize the robot quilt. I've been working on it for... seven years. Whoa. All it took was a major natural disaster to get me to complete a quilt. Now I know.
*Memorial day... and like every year my heart is holding the vision of peace for all.
*Sunny, bright, and warm... suspiciously like as my sister put it "the elusive concept know as 'summer'."
*The first day we plan to put our canoe in the water this season, out on the lake with friends.
What does your Monday look like?
Sending heart-felt blessings to you all this bright and beautiful day.
