I knew the day would be a good one even before it began. I'd just come back inside the house after feeding the chickens and prepared myself a bowl of Nature's Harvest cereal.
Pouring the honey and milk onto my bowl, I started to sit down to eat. Just then, something caught my eye. Up near the northern rim of my bowl was a sliver of almond in the shape of a heart. Is that a sign or what?
Not everyone looks for clues in their cereal bowl to get a feel for the day's forecast. Partly cloudy with a dash of drama? Add a little angst and handwringing on the side and you have a something to grind your teeth about.
Seeing that almond heart at breakfast told me today would be blue skies, friendly smiles, and a get out of the doldrums free card.
I hope your day was a good one too.
If you find one shaped like Richard Nixon, put it on Ebay.
ReplyDeleteA heart shaped almond in your breakfast cereal wins hands down over casting chicken entrails for predicting the day ahead.

I get that feeling when I find heart shaped rocks. Did you ate the heart shaped almond? lol

The other morning when I made a latte, I noticed a heart shape in the froth. I snapped a photo and showed it off all day. My day started with love in my cup and as I remember, it was a great day that one.

Sometimes we just have to take our happiness where we find it. It was a good day !
ReplyDeleteInteresting how the more we look the more we see.
ReplyDeleteOptimism in a cereal bowl.
ReplyDeleteNow you done it. I will be looking for hearts in my cereal!
ReplyDeleteGood one. I like 'GOOD FORECASTS'.
That's better than Jesus' face burned into a piece of toast!!
ReplyDeleteNice..I'm going to start looking into my cereal bowl now, nice forecast for the day Rick.
ReplyDeleteUnderscoring Stephen's remark! I can't recall the last time I enjoyed a bowl of cereal, but yours looks mighty good.
ReplyDeleteJust had my cereal and nothing like that in my bowl
