Happy weekend critterbugs!

I watched Hugo last night. You see the horticultural house mates have signed up to this Fatso thing and it’s actually working out quite nicely. There’s always something interesting around to be watched. So far everything I’ve seen has been good. Hugo was quite a strange one though, at the end the credits informed me it was produced by Johnny Depp, and I think it made a bit more sense once I knew that. Did have quite a Depp feel to it.

Oh oh more good news! There are little sunflowers in my herb garden! They are OH SO pretty, and the strawberries, they are STILL making strawberries. It’s almost April. Who grows strawberries in April? We’re so far from the summer time when these summer fruits should grow happily.

Last night I used some of those strawberries and a banana and some caramel icecream and filled up some wonderful colourful sundae glasses and sprinkled it with crushed up candy cane. It was great. Things are great. The world is sometimes a little bit great.

I’ve rediscovered the joys of wearing boots too. This is a wonderful thing. It all came about from a broken pair of my favourite shoes and a holey pair of my favourite heels, but you know, when God closes a door he opens a window….or a cupboard with boots inside. I get to wear socks every day without looking like the nerdiest girl wearing socks and heels. My feet get to enjoy the feeling of being tucked in, safe and dry ALL DAY. They can pretend to still be in bed while I’m actually at work all day. It’s a wonderful secret feeling.

Do you have secret indulgences like that? Or is it just me? I also love the feeling of snuggling into a cardi. It’s another indulgence. It feels like pajamas but it’s not, so people don’t look at you strangely at work or at the supermarket when you’re snuggling in and feeling so cozy. It’s secretly wonderful.
