Lunch these days

Fall harvest foods like red kuri squash...

grilled cheese is best when the air has a chill in it (that is Sag's sandwich, no, we haven't discovered the world's most amazing casein-free cheese that melts like that)...

apple cider...a seasonal beverage, like Silk Nog, that lifts me and transforms a moment.

Lots of singing and word play inspired by TMBG's ABC dvd we borrowed from the library last week. The Alphabet of Nations is a favorite.

Lots of verbal and physical gags involving penises, poops, farts and pain.

Some talk of the impending parental weekend away. Breaking it down, talking it through, making reassurances, imagining unfamiliar terrain.
