Grace in Small Things 44

Alarmed1. All twelve hosted blogs updated to WordPress 2.7.1
2. A clean refrigerator
3. Satsuma mandarins
4. Watching Pinot make a nest– walking in a circle before settling at the foot of the bed or on my lap for only a minute–before she jumps off and trots away.
5. Tickets to the Sons of Italy crab feed this weekend.
