1. I saw a real, live Renault Megane driving down our street! I did a double take, listened hard for that spooky Twilight Zone music and then ran home to tell The Daddy, because as far as we know they don’t sell them here.  

2. Yesterday I finally found some espresso grind coffee in one of the local supermarkets. We stopped drinking espresso for a while when we got our new drip filter, but then decided it was time to use the machine again before its insides went moldy. The only problem? In the meantime it seems every supermarket in town had noticed their sales had dropped 100% and decided not to carry espresso grind anymore. 

I almost left the fancy silver Illy tin on the shelf because ye gods! $13.99 for a tiny tin of coffee? I think I was paying $5.49 before. But I am so glad I brought that baby home because tonight we had the best espresso we have had in a very long time. The crema alone was to die for, smooth and sweet like hot chocolate. 

3. The kindergarten class had a Mothers Day breakfast this morning and although T-Bot refused to sing or do the actions to the cute song they had been practicing for weeks, he was very excited about giving me the blue crepe paper flower he had made. And because he was excited, I was excited.
