I am cooking half a cup of basmati rice.

I will fry it up later.

With garlic, ginger and soy sauce.

The dinner tonight is maple salmon filets.

I should buy a brocoli.

May the element of fire not rise up as enemy. May you see the realm of the red buddha. May the element of air not rise up as enemy. May you see the realm of the green buddha. May the rainbow of elements not rise up as enemy. May you see the realms of all the buddhas. says Laurie Anderson on Songs of the Bardo. 

All is well today. The rice is cooking, some sweeping has been done, coffee was made. There are a couple of juncos in the backyard with Billy, outside on the deck.
