I'm trying to do Loving Kindness micro meditations every time i itch. I considered every vehicle that caught my attention on the road this morning, realizing taupe, grey, and silver cars were mostly being left out.
I see there will be Morris dancing in the Palo Alto Baylands on Sunday: i'll be there to dance up the sun! And in sensible shoes.

My date-walnut-lemon pilaf is a little mushy, but yum. Cardamon, tumeric, and clove work well with the lemon. (One whole small meyer lemon: with the pith scraped from the peel and the segments cut in half). I don't really notice the dates: not sure if i needed more or if they're subtle. The walnuts seem to add more texture than anything.

This morning at the office's lagoon channel, there was a night heron and a snowy egret. I'll be in all week so observing those birds should be consistent. I've also been enjoying the unfurled leaves of the sweet gum tree just next to where i park. On Friday i noted that brown spiky seed pods are still hanging from the tree, but the new season's pods -- flowers, at this point, i guess -- are also present.
A pair of gulls, probably herring gulls, are on the ledge outside our fifth floor floor-to-ceiling windows, barking and laughing.
The Canadian goose is still nesting downstairs in a planter: we expect goslings this week.
