Morgie slowly improving
Mama slowly declining
(? Maybe I don’t know the virus is undecided.)
but the birds keep singing
outside my window
even with norovirus
and avian flu
every day
is another opportunity
to sing our praises
and glorify God.
(No matter how many times
I’ve paced the bedroom floor
wondering if
I’m walking through a zombie valley
in the shadow of death
by diarrhea diapers
and sleepless nights
and endless laundry
that now needs
stain removal.)
Don’t worry, I won’t include a photo.
There were highlights
like getting my hair done
and watching Morgan sleep in my arms
thinking she looks older
and sunshine
and this spring dinner
al fresco!
Another way
I honor
my Creator
is by cooking
and eating
and enjoying
earthly delights
like this
Crispy Gnocchi with Burst Tomatoes and Mozzarella recipe
which tastes like Margherita pizza
in a pan—
eat it hot!—
dear lord 🤤
do not neglect
the ball of mozzerella
(not pre shredded cheese
do not cheat here)
on top
you will not be sorry.
You will
indeed
be very happy.
Yum yum.
Thank you Mom for coming over and cooking this for us!!!
