Days of Grace 7-19-09
1. Sleeping for 8 hours Friday night, then dozing in the car for the 2 hours up to Connecticut, then sleeping in the sun all day long once up there, then sleeping for almost 12 hours last night, then napping before lunch. I love sleep. Zzzzzzz.
2. Nellie had so much fun, and I had so much fun watching her romp with Sadie the Lab. Now she’s home and resentful and asking me to buy her off with chicken treats. I think she’d stay in Connecticut all alone if we didn’t physically force her to come home with us.
3. My in-laws both – apparently – know about the pregnancy, but they were both tactful enough to not refer to it, and to keep my non-wine-drinking status pretty quiet.
4. Homemade ice cream from this little dairy in Oxford. Best. Ice cream. Ever. Sweet cream. Cows lowing in the background. Unbelievably delicious.
5. The black & white striped turkey feather I found that’s a foot and a half long and perfect. Feathers are cool, and big feathers? They’re like dinosaur souvenirs. So cool.
#1-Golly with all that sleep you would expect that there is an oven somewhere baking a cute little poppy seed bun.
#4-You say this and then don’t give us the details on your chosen flavor? Inquiring minds over here.
#5-Coooooooooool!!!!

That’d be “sweet cream” flavor! Like vanilla, only without the vanilla. You really taste the milk. And the sugar, of course…
Delish!!!
I am so glad you had a great time!! We have a great ice cream place north of where I live that makes it – and the whipped cream. The building has cow spots, I love going there and I will have to when I go home.
