I Clean House Once Every Six Months, Whether It Needs It Or Not

The problem with this practice is that when you finally get around to having a cleaning day, it is just that: a day. A day-long event. Eight hours of brutally hard work.

But now it looks fabulous and I'm more determined than ever to keep it that way. We'll see how long that lasts.

The Professor came over for dinner last night. I prepared my salmon and a salad and had raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries with lemon sorbet for dessert. He loved it. He played piano for me; I played piano for him. We're trying to learn from each other's styles. We play the same piece and the two renditions are so very different. But his is jazz piano and mine's piano to shop by. Background. Easy listening.

Then I pulled out my Singers Unlimited boxed set — only available in Europe, therefore a treasure in America — and we listened to cut after cut of their fabulous music.

What a lovely evening with a lovely man.
