Your Turn for Something Wonderful
My brother and sister-in-law are visiting from a snowy Boston and reminding me, all bundled up, that 60 degrees in March is really warm. I’m about to meet them for Italian food. That’s my wonderful for today. How about you?

I love your timing Wendy, you are always spot on.
Have you had your wonderful yet today?
Sunny and warm enough to do a little yard work, good gym workout, and my rhubarb is starting to come up!
Is the rhubarb for pie?
Norwegian rhubarb cake AND this year I plan to bake a completely rhubarb pie!
I’m not sure I’ve ever tasted rhubarb on its own. What’s it like?
I love a simple rhubarb crisp (ala apple crisp). The sweet crisp sets off the tartness of the rhubarb nicely. I wish I could come up with a better description for how it tastes, but I will start with that. Tart.
Right now, I’m fantasizing about warm rhubarb crisp with vanilla ice cream.
My wonderful is I’m back in my office after a week away. I have my two screens, my comfortable chair, and my floor to ceiling windows. I’m trying to be more positive about work and actually mean it. I really am grateful for these things that make my surroundings pleasant place to work.
Floor to ceiling windows?!! What do you look out on?
I’m over Main St. I see a few parking lots, a parking garage, other buildings, some greenery. If I crane my head I can see part of the state house. I really am fortunate.
Natural light is everything!
