Author’s Note: Sorry it’s not more exciting. But, instead of lamenting all of the things I haven’t seen lately, I made a list of a few things I have.
- The stop sign at the end of my street.
- Snails.
- My sewing machine, otherwise known as That Thing I Have To Fix Every Five Minutes Because I’ve Only Recently Started Using It Again After It Spent Two Years in Storage.
- My resident kitchen gnome.
- My kitchen sink.
- My kitchen.
- (You can’t help but like the gnome.)
- (I’m a little jealous of the gnome, though.)
- (For starters, he has better hair than I do.)
- (And a really cool hat.)
- (He does have to stand up all the time, though.)
- (And smile, even if he might not always feel like smiling. He watches me “cook,” after all. Not a pretty sight.)
- (“Gnome” is an odd word once you’ve said it over and over several times.)
- (I got sidetracked. Where was I?)
- (Oh. Stuff I’ve seen.)
- A bag of potatoes next to my kitchen gnome.
