Now I’m reading The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion.
Ms. Didion recorded her journey through grief in this book which she wrote a year after her husband suddenly died from a heart attack. This will be the first book that I’ve attempted to read about grief since Jarrett died and I’m nervous about what it may unveil within me. But, I’ve realized that I need find ways to understand my grief, and I think this book may be a helpful tool.
Drink in my cup:
I have decided to attempt making my own Kombucha (fermented tea). I’ve heard and read the praises of many people who have felt the health benefits of Kombucha, so I thought I’d give it a shot.

Secret #1: Blog about reading book, instead of actually reading book
Because I had such a hard time finding and ordering the book, I’m already two weeks behind. I’m hoping that one of the secrets is about missing deadlines.
Drink in my cup:
My new favorite drink came to me by way of my new favorite bartender, Christine at Zuppa’s on 18th Street. She makes me this amazing drink that consists of: coffee, Frangelico, Bailey’s and Kahlua. It is heaven, liquefied, warmed and placed in a mug.
