Ten.Nine Hundred & Seventy-Eight

Lost hour.

Something about these don’t look right. I add another cup of flour. I must have only put in two. That’s better.

Still just as good. I brush melted better over them. I think of the biscuits from Church’s Chicken. I think of South Carolina. I think of the biscuits Chef Tate made for the opening dinner served with a sorghum molasses butter and satsuma preserves. How did I forget to take my menu as a souvenir?

Coffee and more coffee.

Softball for her, baseball for him. Gray skies. I wanted more rain.

I check the time. Not yet noon. Tea, blanket, book, bed. Slowing down my Sunday.

I read the words and see a vision appear in my mind. It is sunny. There is a table out in a field, next to a garden. There are people. There is wine. There is food. Beyond the garden is a vineyard. Beyond the vineyard is my home. Beyond the home is a set of small buildings that are gathering/living spaces. This is where I do my work. This is where others come to do theirs. This is a place where ideas are exchanged, where community is fostered, where people dream the impossible dreams. I realize the vision is still the same as it was 10 years ago. But I am closer. I am so much closer.

These episodes are so long.
