I began today dancing alone to Joni Mitchell’s ‘River’ before the sun or anyone else was even up.

Then I ate a sugar plum made by a very clever faerie.

And followed that with tea and The Terrible Troll Bird, a picture book classic by Ingri and Edgar Parin D’Aulaire, which I found in a box of unwanted books someone delivered to the library. Thank you, someone.

Thank you, faerie.

Thank you, Joni.
