Ordinary Wonderment

Today's Joy: Valentine's Day. I have to admit, Reader, I am not feeling very valentiney today. I realize, however, that this is due more to my recent lack of valentine than to any fault of the holiday itself. Were I a few more days (or months) removed from my last relationship, I'd be happy to be happy for all my good friends who are fortunate to share each day with their valentine. For them, I am so glad that love blossoms every day. For myself, I am just happy to share a home-cooked dinner with family tonight. Speaking of which, Mmmm! Just discovered the joys of Polenta. Can delicious mooshy corn stuff be a valentine? I think so! I heart Polenta! Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours, Reader.
