conisseur

some people know a lot about coffee or are choosy about their whiskey…

me?

raisins.

i love them.

and i realized this as i was musing one day about raisins that i really liked and my next thought was “who does this? thinks lovingly about RAISINS!?”

i think they have a bad rap…like prunes

which marketing now wants to call “dried plums”

so why don’t we start saying “dried grapes”

well, bc it is too long and bc raisin is such a nice word.

these beauties come from publix…near the produce in the bulk section…and they are SOOOO good

i also like the ones that come in ready made trail mix packs which contain salted peanuts…bc the peanuts share that salt with the raisins! yum!

yes, i know too much thinking about raisins =)

playing...

before the storm and before showers last night , the kids played in the field…

esme on a bike miles too big for her to actually push the pedals….titus yelling with glee from the cart and jack pushing to make it happen while instructing to esme “steer! steer!”

i watched this with gillian from the doorway with such a smile…

i love this crew so very much!
