oh the light this morning

This morning the light and the fog were divine. All we needed was something interesting for them to fall on and wrap around ;-) But just as the light will come back, so will the leaves. After turning around to go home I just chanced to see this heron. 

Then I had an excellent discussion with a co-worker. I have set up monthly sessions with him. I've been crystal clear that I recognize him as savvy and I go to him for advice learning/dealing with government/this office. He is forthright to the point where many would be off-put by it but it is exactly what I need. 

When he learned we're going to Iceland (we're going to Iceland!) he encouraged me to go to omNom. omNom is an Icelandic chocolate company. omNom is what Sesame Street's Cookie Monster says when eating a cookie, right? Did these syllables have food related meaning before Cookie Monster? They seem perfect for food you want to gobble up. Pre-Covid they offered a factory tour along with a class on chocolate and a tasting.  https://guidetoiceland.is/connect-with-locals/donna5/an-invitation-to-tour-the-amazing-omnom-chocolate-factory

In Iceland lots of candy bars include licorice.

We get Friday off and we get three hours off tomorrow. 

Many thanks to Cailleach for continuing to host WildWed 299.
