sometimes

I am such a dingbat.
~
I just walked outside
to get the diapers off the line and thought,
"Mmm something smells good!"
Which is odd.
I can't remember ever smelling a neighbor's dinner
since we've lived here.
Oh, maybe the occasional grill going
but that doesn't count.
Then I realized
that's our dinner!!
I forgot for a moment
that I had dinner cooking in my summer kitchen.
Silly me.
Let's just hope I remember to start the rice that goes with it.....

  1. Don't worry! At least you weren't forgetting about a child or something more important!

    As for me, I can never seem to smell my own cooking - maybe because I am so engrossed in making it. What a delight it would be to smell it and think the neighbors are eating well tonight... and realize it was mine...

    Love,

    PS. BIG surprise! Baby is ok!!! PG!
