The world survives into another day.

My phone woke me up hours before my alarm, beeping plaintively to let me know it was almost out of power. When I couldn't get back to sleep after lying in bed for a couple of hours, I finally just got up. Did my laundry, baked a cake, cooked up some potatoes and spinach for lunch.

I was thinking about not going into the birds today, maybe just dropping off the cake for the volunteers - until I checked my Moleskin planner, where I had birds written in for Sunday. So I went, and let baby chickens peck at my braid as I cleaned out their enclosure and fed them mealworms out of my open hands. Everyone appreciated the cake, and if anyone has suggestions on more savory treats, like whole-wheat muffins that go easy on the sweet, I'd love to try switching things up a bit from the other end of the baked goods spectrum.

Then I cooked some lunches to pack away and take to work for the rest of the week, and now I'll tidy up my bed enough to climb under the covers and get some of the sleep I missed last night.

Cornmeal muffins with sharp Cheddar and some Italian seasoning mix always went over great at the radio station. I would doctor up a box of corn muffin mix with a cup of shredded sharp Cheddar and a heaping tablespoon of the dried Italian herb mix.
