I've not heard of this either! You've done a stellar job writing about it. So much so, now I wish I had a can of bubbly to crack and savor right now. Also - I adore that you do this every night and love what it symbolizes even more ♥️🥹.
And the straws?!?! A girl after my own heart. I feel as though I need to see a pic of said bouquet.
Food is such an integral part of our lives. For celebrations - people bring food, for times of sadness and tragedy- people offer food as a means of comfort; when you visit a friend - they offer food (or a beverage). I guess it's a way to express our love and affection for others.
My coffee sister 🥹 thank you so much for reading and for speaking to me after the straw party. I will share a pic! Subject will read: For Your Eyes Only 🤣🤣
I never heard of a gastronomical essay either!!! Thank you for introducing me to this delightful literary delight! AND for delighting me with your tale of sparkling delight! I loved it. The joy was positively fizzing throughout the whole essay. ✨💕🫶
what’s it called when you string a few glimmers together and weave them into a routine? i think it’s the recipe to a life well-lived :)
LOVED straw party, and i have a similar situation, but it’s the straws bashished to the back of a shadowed counter awaiting wash. would be cuter if it was the display of straws ready for use!
thank you for sharing your brilliance with us, you have a knack for being reflective, relatable & relaxed with your words - which keeps me coming back for each week’s update, eager to be transported to wherever you’re taking us <3
I had never heard of the gastronomical essay, so thank you for enlightening me to it. And I think you nailed it, we learnt about your love of sparkling water and store storage. And you even made me giggle with this line —
“I never transfer the contents to a glass, for that kind of class does not exist in my home. I mean, why dirty another dish? #AmIRight?!
Hi Michael! 1. Thank you so much for taking time to read AND leave a comment. I appreciate you. 2. Do you have a black cat?? I love cats. I used to have a black cat too. Her name was Usha. Cheers from my can (not glass!) 😅
I do have a black cat. You can see him there in my profile pic. Also, if your interested, you can read a story about the shenanigans my black cat gets up to here:
