ending the day on a sweet note

So, I came downtown to have a cappuccino at my favorite place and decided that I wanted to try something like dessert.  So I had mlintsi (in Russian, blini) - thin sweet pancakes rolled around a ricotta-like cheese with sour cherries and topped with sour cream.   Unbelievable!  I framed my mlintsi with cappuccino before and after.  Ah, life is good today.

I have driven my body like a car and yesterday ran out of gas.  I decided to take the weekend a little easy so slept a lot today, and now at 7:45pm will take the 45 minute metro ride to my neighborhood, then walk briskly to my apartment.  I'll read till I sleep.  Tomorrow morning early, or maybe even this evening, I'll make my 2 minute video for my church and try to get it sent.  I'm glad our bodies are smart enough to shut us down when we really need to rest.  I don't have anything I have to do until I meet with a group tomorrow at 4.

  1. Sounds like just the day you needed. And mlintsi sound delicious! I don't know how you even get any sleep with all of the cappuccino that you consume. Love...
