Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Imperfect Porridge

The perfect bowl of porridge requires careful preparation, mixing the right proportions of oats and milk, slowly simmering to the optimal consistency until ready to serve in a bowl (previously warmed by filling with boiling water) and then topping it off with crunchy Demerara sugar and a splash of cold milk; however a novel twist this morning (not recommended) was to fail to empty the hot water from the bowl before adding the cooked porridge, although fortunately the latter floated on the former long enough to salvage an edible, if imperfect, breakfast.
