Two Cents

Was today's find, on the literal level. Other small delights of the week: sitting next to a chatty lady in church on Sunday yielded me a full tour of St. Margaret's facilities and a possible ally in this job hunt. Faculty backing out at the last minute for a summer arts' academy just opened up a one-week gig possibility.

It is the small things in life that make it endurable.

Treasure

$.63 was my score in yesterday's parking lot stroll! Discovered, for the first time, that all the heads/faces on the coins face to the left, except for Mr. Lincoln. Anyone know why?

Choking on a Starfish


Not sure if this qualifies as delightful, but it made me laugh endlessly at this bird's optimism.

Penny Found

but a little out of reach! I did find another one in a parking lot, so there was still delight and monetary increase achieved.

Figuratively Literal

Found a penny and a dime this morning. I wonder what it is that delights me so in finding coinage on the roadway. But the true cadeau du jour was this gorgeous blue heron on Silver Lake.

dazzling


Standing directly under three tons of crystal actually makes one's heart palpitate a bit.

Joe Bar

One of the simple delights that I've encountered in Seattle is the exquisite care that is put into making a perfect cup of coffee. From the beans selected, to the foamy milk to the hand crafted cup, it's all a work of art. This is yesterday's mocha. A moment of divinity.
