The Brost Roast

papa's 55th

a father's finesse

Derek wandered into a Williams Sonoma at the mall and came home with galactic pancake molds. He also picked up a very beautiful iron teapot and a selection of loose leaf teas from Teavana. Did I mention this spontaneous trip to the mall occurred on the way home from hearing the Dali Lama speak (he went two days in a row for a talk on the Heart Sutra) in Bloomington? Not sure if there's a connection there but I can rarely get him to do any sort of shopping, so it was interesting what he returned with...a delicious surprise! We enjoyed a short window of dry weather at the Zionsville Art Fair on Saturday, and relaxed all Sunday while watching the rain come down once again. It has been so wet here for the last few weeks I am beginning to worry about potato rot (oh no!)...Theo has been playing outside lately whenever the rain abates and without fail becomes quickly coated in muck, which he loves of course. It makes worm catching easier I'm sure. So, that brings us to today as daddy showed off Theo's haircut he administered during bath time. I had to laugh as it goes almost perfectly diagonal on his brow. I think tomorrow I can touch it up a bit, but he gets a B+ for best intentions.
