monday meditation – haiku

Wet break of the day
An eighth moody Monday sings
watching the robin

— Charlotte Le Blog

Bonjour and thank you for joining me today for monday meditation – a haiku. It’s my eighth week of furlough and I’m feeling a little moody and uninspired. It could be the rain – it’s supposed to rain all week – or it could just be the Monday blues. Either way, I don’t have a lot to meditate on today. Whenever I can’t think of what to write in my gratitude notebook, I just make up a haiku. What do you think?

Robin outside my window

One thing that does lift my spirits is watching the robins in the yard through the front window. There are nine out there right now. I wish I could get a good picture for you. They are so sweet with such a beautiful song. I made baguettes last night (for my Brie Tartine du Dimanche Soir) using this recipe from Allie at Baking a Moment. They turned out beautifully. Just a note though, mind the steam when you open the oven – yikes. Next time I am going to try and half the recipe. I froze two of the baguettes and we ate most of the other two last night. I have a piece left that I am going have with raspberry jam and café au lait this morning. That will definitely set my Monday straight.

Other than that I am really going to concentrate on making time for reading this week. I think that’s just what I need to find a new perspective, a fresh voice. I would love to hear your monday meditation – haiku, please send in the comments or email me at bonjour@charlotteleblog.com and please join me Wednesday for quoi de neuf, à bientôt!
