This morning mountaintown seemed to be dipped in silver glitter glue.The sky was gunmetal grey satin with bursts of blue, and every surface was coated with ice. It was almost like a christmas dream as the temperature much have hovered just at freezing during the night. The trees were dripping with actual icicles.
There was no school for Miss Ella today, but the roads weren't bad at all. I took the children out to get their daddy a Valentine, a violet orchid, and to get them out of the house so that he could get some work done. Upon our return he was asleep in the red velvet beanbag in the living room. The preschool cold seems to have gotten all of us this time.
The doll is named Garden. I suggested a flower name, Primrose or Bluet ( for the literary minded), or maybe Poppy. She said, "Garden". Sure. She needs a bit more hair and some clothes. Ella loved seeing her made and now she wants one that is "Japanese".
Ella ( and her daddy) got me some Lovely perfume for Valentines Day. I had been sniffing a paper adventisement for weeks, and it was starting to smell like paper. Sarah Jessica Parker is wearing a pink dress in the ad, and she looks like she is sitting on the toilet in the photograph. Next time you see the ad you will completely agree. Luckily, the perfume smells fresh and delicious. We had planned on taking Ella out to see a mariachi band tonight, but is is eight degrees and she is sick, so we had an italian picnic in the living room. Literally, roman style, with a big tablecloth. It was, like the perfume, lovely.
