it is nice to receive things other than memo’s, invoices and minutes {yes some people still keep minutes and send hard copies through internal mail} in  my mail-box at work. today in a buff envelope was a little blue papercrane with instructions to puff the wings, after a week or so of being in transit from boston.

so at home this late afternoon, the crane joined me for a glorious cup of coffee. the first cup of coffee i have enjoyed since buying the gaggia classic from my coffee-nut cousin. we’ve had plenty of coffees, but this one was perfect due to the right sized coffee cup {a lucky find of 4 cups and saucers for $5 during today’s lunch time op shop visit}. oh how we like the new gaggia classic, it makes the kitchen smell magical each morning {actually it’s the freshly ground coffee beans} and it means my dairy intake is higher than ever. 3 litres of milk since good friday. usually such an amount would last a little under a fornight in this household.

but yes, the blue bird was made by liz {aka eshu} who is spreading kindness the old fashioned way. thank you liz, your bird made my day.
