Devilry I’d Enjoy Dreaming Up More than Actually Doing:

1. composing a dessert recipe disguising brussels sprouts

Glad Game: Sunshine. Walk. Cheery Edgard Bori music. People filming in the park. Sitting shoulder to shoulder. Buying tomatoes from the market that smell like tomatoes. Crepes. Dogs with funny haircuts.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating.
