Grace In Small Things: Part 23 of 365

1. Our littlest cat, Lula, appears to be entering her first heat but has not hit full yowl yet, so we might get some sleep tonight. We hope.

2. The dark aubergine merino wool yarn I bought is turning into a pretty spiffy pair of hand warmers.

3. Lizano salsa is good on just about anything.

4. Jill Barber is good for my ears.

5. My lime green chenille toque looks completely ridiculous, but it keeps my head toasty when I have to make a mad dash to the dumpster when it's -45°F with the wind chill.

Wage a battle against embitterment and take part in 365 days of Grace in Small Things.

I love that you are calling it a campaign against bitterness.

I have some views on bitterness. Bitterness is not all bad. It protects us in situations where we are powerless but treated wrongly. Obviously, it can go haywire. I guess that is where the campaign comes in.

I am so afraid of your cat right now

Thanks for the Jill Barber link. I hadn't heard of her before and it's just the kind of music I need on rotation. Also, her site is just exquisite!
