Les grandes personnes sont décidément très très bizarres!
Last night I was so very lucky to have to the chance to be visited by the Little Prince. In year twelve, I put in our yearbook that he was my dream date for the formal. In spite of the fact that he is an alien from another planet. In spite of the fact that he doesn't really belong in this reality. In spite of the fact that I didn't even go to our year twelve formal.
And last night, like in so many Winterson novels, he turned out to be a she. How perfect!
This morning I decided that since I had to spend ten dollars on a mini muffin tin, I was going to make the most of it. I made little choc chip muffins from my OWN recipe! That's right folks. No bakery book, no exact quantities, no rules! Something you really should never do in dessert making. But I did, and I have to tell you, for a moment there, I thought it would all turn to slime, cos that's how everything looked, rather slimy, but out come the muffins and they are melt-in-your-mouth delicious! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Go Luce!
More wisdom from my Little Prince:
"One should never listen to flowers. One must admire them and breathe their fragrance. Mine perfumed all my planet, but I did not know how to enjoy her. The tale of claws which irritated me so much should simply have touched my heart... At the time, I was unable to understand anything! I should have based my judgement upon deeds and not words. She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I should never have run away from her! I should have guessed at the affection behind her poor little tricks. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her."
