I appreciate:

• A good thunderstorm and a nice drenching rain.
• Newly sharpened knives. They work so much better this way!
• The process of learning how I do things (to use in improv). How DO I hold a spoon, open a cupboard, pour a glass of wine? It’s so interesting (and harder than I expected) to try to recreate these actions without the actual objects!
• Oh, plus I am deeply, deeply grateful for good friends. Especially when they bring the most beautiful child in the universe with them and write a song for us on the way over!!
