Root Music

When it comes to people there are ones who float you up and ones who bring you down. More important than gravitating towards positive people with commonalities is to find one who truly inspires you.

Sunday is best spent with a friend in a cozy cafe. A circle of bluegrass musicians started playing around 11. Claire and I grabbed a table next to the window and conversation ranged from birth control as an integral part of female equality to rural-urban divide and recycling and sustainability. We made friends with the adorable little Adeline, who enthusiastically showed us her color books. Before we knew it the morning flew by. Some moments just can't be captured on Kodak.

We parted ways in the nearly afternoon. I made my usual stop at United Noodles to stock up on groceries and acquire ingredients for the hot pot gathering I've been planning for the upcoming week. With a stuffed belly and cooler full goodies I left the city happy and content. Best weekend in MSP yet. Good company makes all the difference. Thank you Claire for restoring my sanity, however little there is left.
