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.

Lost Cherry

The Siesta café where I while away the hour between driving shifts was unusually busy when I arrived today with the two visible staff (equipped with headsets, possibly just cosmetic to exude an air of modernity as it did not seem to improve efficiency) rushing to service the queue, which haste led one of them ramming the cake tongues into the pile of bakewell tarts, dislodging the cherry from at least one; when my turn came I volunteered to take a cherry-less bakewell off her hands, thus relieving myself of the decision whether to eat it or leave it, even though it did mean foregoing a potential one of my five a day fruit & veg.
