Sometimes the simplest of things escape me, until they build up to no longer be simple or little things, but a wonderful accumulation of general goodness that both thrills me, and makes me worry that surely, I am the wrong recipient of so much good, and that one day the intended will come looking for their's.

Everything from the slightest smile, twinkle of an eye, the smooth consistency of flesh, the littlest act of consideration that flows so effortlessly, the barely conscious move towards me when I'm close, the simple peace and calm that flows into me from even the lightest touch: all of this means so much more to me than my meager skill with words can ever hope to express. I am always grateful, and some days, it is even made manifest. I sincerely hope for even a little of this for all who read this.

I still think you just say this because I made banana bread ... ;-)

Not "just", but that was a part of the myriad kindnesses. Bananas and chocolate will always garner my attention.

Ah, so you're with a banana bread junkie too. He hasn't done it lately (though I'm sure if he reads this, he will be reminded and start again), but in the past, John would buy waaaay too many bananas for us to eat before they started to get overripe, in the hopes that I would make banana bread to use up the bananas before they went bad. This clever scheme worked for him many times. Perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned this though, as I may have just given someone evil ideas for obtaining more banana bread from you. ;-)

Pshaw, that's an old trick. The best to date is "Sweetie, I'm going to throw these out, unless you want them for eating or cooking".

Excellent for you both. :)
