Corners of My Life: porch sit

porch sit

One of my favorite times of the day is our morning "porch sit". Today was the first day this season that it was warm enough to sit on the porch. A cup of coffee, the NY Times crossword and a magazine - it doesn't get much better than that! This year I may even get up 30 minutes earlier on work days to enjoy this relaxing start to the day.
