We went for groceries and other errands and stopped for a later lunch. We chose a new sushi restaurant where we ordered Thai curry. This was a pleasant turn of events, as we'd expected that they only did sushi. Go figure. The menu was extensive and came in a binder with photos of each food item -- like I saw on my trips to Asia. There were way too many choices, but we narrowed things and enjoyed both dishes. Needless to say there was a lot of food to take home with us <smile>.
In the late afternoon, we went for a walk through the neighbourhood and saw the early moonrise. It was mostly full today. The walk was peaceful. Many trees were left standing when the development began. Along the way, we heard the breeze rustling the branches as well as a number of different birds chattering.
I thought a lot about the unexpected event over our lunch plans. Serendipity presents itself often. I love the happy surprises that we encounter. Perhaps I need to focus on these occasions more often. They can bring a wonderful turn of mood -- like receiving an unexpected gift. Cool.
Surprise, Surprise -- Cilla Black
