Went for a run around the neighborhood this morning, then came back and made myself coffee and breakfast. English muffin topped with smashed avocado, scrambled egg and chili crisp. Aside from the muffin, it’s based on one of my favorite things from our local coffee shop back in Bed-Stuy (Milk & Pull). Good coffee, kind people, and this delicious snack.
Cacio needed a good run after a few days of rain meant that the muddy park was off-limits. She sprinted in circles over and over before flopping down, mouth agape, an expression of pure joy. It made me so happy to see her so happy. The Bay Area is flip-flopping between winter and summer right now, but today was summer, and it was excellent.
Drinks and comedy at the Curran in the evening. Alex Edelman. My first time seeing him and he was completely hilarious. As usual though, the best part was spending time with friends. I feel really lucky, because after a few thousand miles and a few years of moving, I’m building a community of folks who are kind, and creative, and so generous.
It’s so easy to take things for granted, but I feel like I’m having the complete opposite experience lately. I’m so acutely aware of how fortunate I am. For a loving relationship, wonderful friends, a dream job, good health and this beautiful place that we live. Oh, and this funny dog currently rolling around on the living room floor, of course.
