it will be the center Spiral in Alyssia's Quilt. She loves night. the 1, which is larger than 2 1/2 inches, but i didn't want to cut it. It's all there is of it. so 2 had to become smaller but it works....Night. and she loves purple. And then....surrounding her Night with Gentle Day that Cynthia wishes Us All... to surround her night which she can't have much of anymore with her commitment to Mothering...but SomeDay....Night will become hers again So, this Spiral, a promise that Night will become hers again
went down to the storage bins at B Garden to get the other pie plate...which turns out to be only in my imagination...no other pie plate there in the bin of Belov~ed pyrex. a shallow casserole dish will have to work but/and i got lost in the bins, looking, so much stuff there, so much love and i found Old Cowboy's mother's ummm big Fork which i will take Saturday to hold the turkey as it's sliced. and then the recipe for the pie crust...my mother's No Fail Pie Crust. I have it written in my address book, under P. But i wanted the index card. So the recipe box. Where i got lost again. And Jenny called and i took her in my lost wandering. She's making pumpkin pie. i asked....what crust? and she said with a DUH inflection...Gramma's No Fail, of course! and i won't put the recipe here, it's embarassing and even shameful. But when you are making THE pie...it has to be this Gramma's No Fail. I have tried a million pie crusts in effort to break away, but.....return and return. it's just How It Is.
it was a Gentle day. I hope for All, it was, too. I wish for the World. Gentle day. i wish, oh, Please...just Gentle day
