Friday!!!

It's Friday and today is full of good things. First, despite the dire forecasts that today would be mostly cloudy, the sun is only slightly obscured by fluffy white clouds and I was actually rather warm after my walk home in the sun. Second, for lunch I heated a fresh croissant with camembert and ham (from Tuesday market) in the microwave. It was delicious, even if the cheese did make a little mess. Third, I get to gloat over the fact that it's currently below freezing back in Springfield with snow expected tonight, while it is 65 degrees here. Fourth, I saw the hugest tulips ever today, but I didn't have my camera with me. :-( They were about the size of teacups in a pinkish-red color. And finally, I am filled with the expectation of a delightful day tomorrow! We're taking a BCA fieldtrip to Mulhouse and Thann, including a possible picnic. In Mulhouse we will revel in cars at the car museum and then in Thann we will hike up to a ruined castle/vineyard, which is where the picnic might take place.

In the meantime I will attempt to work on my paper due on Wednesday without letting it obscure the joy of today.

And as a final addendum, I wish to say that if you have any objections to my spelling or my grammar, I do not wish to hear them. It's very difficult to switch back and forth from English grammar and spelling to French. ok? ok.

A bientôt!
