Sunday: morning, noon and night

After the awful weather on Friday, the sun returned on Sunday, with a gorgeous day and no wind (at least where we are).  Since we are both busy, and with trips ahead, this Sunday was a low-key day with a leisurely breakfast, lazy afternoon and a relaxed dinner.

After grocery shopping (a task I like – there’s something about wandering up and down the aisles wondering what to buy that is always interesting), I spent the afternoon outside, re-potting indoor plants, reading and listening to podcasts.  Actually, I listened to Jess Lively and The Jess Lively Show, which I have really grown to like.  The conversation on being transgender with Dillian DiGiovanni was riveting, and the one on the enneagram personality types (I am a 7 for those of you who know about it – maybe time to do a post on it?) also interesting.

As the evening approached, I looked in the fridge and decided that really the aubergine and courgettes should be used up, along with some tomatoes that might not last that long.  Obviously, a ratatouille was called for, with lots of garlic, aubergine, courgettes, a little red capsicum and those tomatoes.  The house filled with the delicious smell in no time.

Yesterday, desert was a mix of fresh blueberries and raspberries, today, it was strawberries, which I have to say are really excellent at the moment.

So, as Sunday draws to a close and we sip a glass of sauvignon blanc while watching ‘Dr Who’, I am also checking the weather forecast for Melbourne at the end of the week…looks like summer dress weather!
