flying high... relatively speaking.


I'm having a really good day. Thankfully I was able to work all morning and got a good
start at a bunch of things. Made an angel, a large tree vase, mugs for a friend, an advent's
wreath, and started a couple of large vases.

Then I got my groove on at Dance 101 with the firecracker teacher of the Salsa Fit class.
It is so envigorating and I sweat like a pig. It's crazy. This teacher has energy like I used
to have ten years ago. I hope one day I'll get back to some kind of better shape.
Anyway, envigorating it was. My head was still red 30 minutes later.

Now I made a cake, wiped down the toy room, cleaned the kitchen, made the kid's dinner,
and am generally in a good mood.
Oh, and I was meant to bake: I found those plums that are not common to Georgia,
but I grew up with them, so naturally I had to make this German yeast cake.
I just grabbed what I assumed to be enough for a cake, and check this out:
The perfect amount for the cake pan. Not one too few, not one too many!
And did I mention I have four kids here?
I feel like ... one of those perfect fifties women right now. What do you call them?
