I love visiting my friend Catherine’s artist cottage. It’s one of my favorite places. And today was a special treat, as she invited me to meet a feisty chicken she has in her yard. The chicken had blue feet, which I obviously took as a sign of nobility.
While this chicken visit was taking place, my new cleaner was getting my cottage ready for guests. How wonderful is that?
Later, I drove back to Houston. My neighbor brought me flowers. I went to Trader Joe’s and bought healthy food for dinner: salmon and broccolini. But also horchata ice cream, because life is short. I took a walk by the Menil, which was beautifully lit up in the evening. All in all, it’s been a good day.
