My other kitchen


My other Kitchen

we decided to make crepes for dinner tonight.
only four eggs in my refrigerator,
but my other kitchen is across the street
in the blue house, the one with
the hanging baskets of purple and pink
flowers.
The keychain is a silver medallion
of the Virgin Mary that I bought
at St Peters in Rome, no connection
to their beliefs.
I wish I still could still enjoy the liturgy.
She had 14 eggs in two cartons, so I just took
the carton with the two eggs and walked
back across the street.
She still has my compost mixer, but
returned the vacuum cleaner.
It all works out in the end.
