It is evening and I´m resting.

My legs hurt from my thighs down in spite of the pill.
But now finally the working day is over and I brought a giant saucer with leche flan for company.
I´m very happy with the Thermos bottle that Dixie gave me. I wouldn´t have known that it was second hand if she hadn´t told me that she had discarded it because she wanted a bigger one. I remember that I bought 2 of those big ones, several years ago, when I directed literary workshops. We had a coffee break then and I provided the coffee, tea and sugar and the students brought cookies and tiny salami sandwiches. A couple of them turned into good writers. But then my workshop´s importance was that it was a place where you could say any thing. It was the time of Pinochet and many people did not dare open their mouths in front of their family.
I have no idea who has now the big Thermos bottles. I´m sure that I gave them to my daughters but both have a tendency of throwing things away easily. I, on the other hand, am a hoarder.
I still have a bit of the quiche but I´ll eat it tomorrow. I also have schredded cabbage and carrot to make coleslaw. But until the leche flan is finished, I don´t want to eat anything else.
How has your day been?

Hopefully your feet will get better soon, amen. As for my day, it was busy, which is always there every day, and now I am relaxing while visiting Mylot.

I didn't know you taught literary workshops. Wonderful!
I'm sorry you don't have those big thermoses. I'm glad Dixie gave you one that is working well for you. Enjoy the leche flan.

I'm sorry your legs hurt. I hope they feel better today. Have a good day. My day has been mostly visiting my husband in the hospital.

I’m sorry to hear your legs are causing you pain. I am very familiar with that and it isn’t fun at all. Hopefully, tomorrow you will take is easy and try to rest.

Sorry to hear your legs are still hurting despite the medication. Hope you feel better soon!
The leche flan sounds delicious, enjoy! It's wonderful that you can find joy in simple things like a Thermos bottle and a dessert.
My day has been good, thanks for asking. I always find it interesting to hear about people's experiences, like your workshops during a challenging time. It sounds like you created a valuable space for people to connect and express themselves freely.

We used to use our thermos at the horse rides but we don't use them much otherwise. However, I won't be throwing them out.
