reassuring moments

Do you ever have those moments when things just seem to come together?

I do! Despite the many other things that happen on a daily basis there a moments that reassure me of my actions each and every day!

I love learning a new word or fact and then using it to showcase my intelligence during an episode of Jeopardy that same night. Sitting in a British Literature course jabbering on about the classics can be totally justified when Alex Trebek says "This famous author wrote Heart of Darkness among other things." and then earning the bragging rights when I am the first to say Conrad!

I love when I just happen to be reading a book in which the story occurs on the exact dates that I am reading it. Actually, today, I decided that it was such a lovely day outside that I should hunt down two Oprah Book Club books that I have and finally begin reading them. I was sitting out in an Adirondak chair when I came to "...this first day of June"." LOVE IT!

(yum! supper)


So lately, I have had this feeling that I should start a "supper club." I was watching an episode of one of Rachael Ray's shows and she featured a restaurant-style supper club that consisted of dinner and (after moving some tables around) dancing. It looked okay...but I thought the idea of a supper club was fabulous. A few days later I was watching a show on HGTV about outdoor kitchens and one couple used their kitchen for their monthly supper club...how fun! Immediately following the outdoor kitchen show I switched it over to Paula Deen and she was preparing a multitude of dishes that she intended to bring....to a supper club.

I need to start planning a supper club!
