The best time of the day

1. Boiled eggs and soldiers to start the day.
2. Hand made valentines presents. Delighted when a pretty boring bit of fabric transforms into something, well, just pretty. Sometimes it doesn't work, sometimes it does.
3. The Best Time of the Day by Raymond Carver. Why waste words when just the right amount will do?
4. Listening to the radio as I work and being Jarvised. Mr Cocker, live from Paris and bringing a little bit of frenchifed weirdness into my living room.
5. True Grit at the 6.20 showing. Cohen Brothers. A western. Jeff Bridges. Popcorn. Beer. There's five good things right there and it's only half past four.
