unplanned planning


I must have sensed it coming.

I had laundered all of my handkerchiefs; failed to find a use for the half lemon in my refrigerator; forgotten about the gingerroot in my freezer the last time I made curry; and gone a little Pagnol* crazy during my last shopping trip.



Had I planned for a bad cold, I could not have done it better.



*As you may already know, I love Marcel Pagnol's novels and memoirs (as well as the movies adapted from them) with a passion, and will most certainly mention them again here.
