Saturdays are my most favorite day of the week because they seem long. I get up early and fill my day with creative activities. If I'm the only one up, I begin by listening to my favorite music while I brew coffee and dream up the day I want to experience.
Today I wasn't alone, my daughter Sunsetta was awake too so she played music from her Spotify playlist and shared with me her favorite lines, sang, and even got out the guitar and played from ear teaching herself, "Everlong" by the Foo Fighters. Spending time with her invariably inspires me to want to do something creative too. This particular morning I decided to bake a cake, not just any cake, but the one that has become a favorite in our household. It's "Hershey's Perfectly Chocolate Cake" along with the "Perfectly Chocolate Frosting". Sipping my coffee, listening to Sunsetta play, and beginning the first creative part of my day I was in paradise in my own kitchen. Soon my house smelled good enough to eat and then I began to write.
Creative Day Saturdays also entail watching movies, talking on the phone, taking pictures, and napping. I also love to run a lavender bath and luxuriate in the bubbles.
If it's a sunny day I love taking pictures and catching the birds out on my deck. It's become a day and night of balancing alone time with family time. It's my most favorite day of the week!
