Advent Gratitude December 14

--

Today I stayed inside, worked, drank a lot of tea, watched the rain come in. It was a Monday kind of day.

My husband made rice pilaf. My daughter made banana bread. Both were delicious. But the highlight of the day was at the end: a hot bath.

My mother used to say – “Catherine the Great herself couldn’t imagine the luxury of hot water from a tap, or how easy it could be to enjoy the pleasure of a hot bath.”

Hot bath, warm house. I don’t take it for granted. I feel grateful.
