Indulging a whim...

"Of all modern notions, the worst is this:  that domesticity is dull.  Inside the home, they say, is dead decorum and routine; outside is adventure and variety. 


But the truth is that the home is the only place of liberty, the only spot on earth where man can alter arrangements suddenly, make an experiment, or indulge in a whim. 



The home is not the one tame place in a world of adventure; it is the one wild place in a world of rules and set tasks." -- G.K. Chesterson


Our whim this morning was yogurt and granola parfaits for breakfast...outside.  How did you indulge your whims today?

Just at home with the opportunity to BE...to be still and to be me. Don't get to do that often...thanks for the encouragement.

Love you.

Lol! By having to much coffee! I love that quote you wrote with this post! I may have to use it on my blog sometime soon.

Blessings!
