bakin'

[fflo]

Just back from the International No Diet Day bake sale for NOLOSE across from the farmers' market this morning. About to head out for Kentucky Derby party.

I realized as I was making cookies last night that they were the first I baked in something like TEN YEARS. That is to say, the last time I made cookies before yesterday, at least most of the following were true:

upsidedownblue hadn't yet kissed a boy;
pijeanf still lived on the other side of the continental divide (and maybe even in CA);
vjsmom worked at the Archives & wouldn't have a kid for another five years;
homovegetarian was still working on her B.A.;
infinitepresent and elmur_fudd hadn't been through the third grade;
sprig5 and I hadn't even met yet.

In other words, it'd been a long time since I'd made cookies.

What else was true over ten years ago?

Ten years ago...
My ex and I were on the same team.
I was working on my "Rockets of the World" poster. I was trying to make a living off of my books alone
My first bunny pal, Frida, would not be born for 2 1/2 months.

And my entire musical life was stuffed, out-of-sight, out-of-mind, in my blue corduroy dulcimer bag.

I almost put something in my original list about you being pre-filk then. I knew the dulcimer was there but dormant.
