The Daily Cup – Mother’s Day Edition

| The Cupboard Deli

deli - 0510……………………………………………………..

Get a Mother’s Day card AND some nice stationary. Take the time to sit down with no distractions. Ask people around you to give you some space and quiet for an hour or so. Write mom a letter; a real letter with a pen and that nice stationary. It need only be one page, but really say something from the heart. When you are done, fold your letter nicely so it fits in the card. Give it to mom on Sunday, or when you see her next, along with a gift or special edible treat. A variation: If your mother is no longer around, write her a letter anyway and save it in a photo album or with other meaningful items you cherish. Another variation: Write a letter to a mother in your life other than your own.

The Daily Cup – Make a Toast

deli - 0509……………………………………………………..

Do you have wine with dinner? Tonight, if possible, or sometime soon, invite a few friends over to dinner for no reason at all. Serve a simple meal, but make sure to serve wine. If you or they do not drink alcohol, make a fancy-looking drink with some ginger ale and orange or cranberry juice. Serve it in wine glasses or champagne flutes. Make dinner time formal by sitting properly around the table. Then, invite each guest to take turns standing and making as many toasts as they can. Let the momentum build and fizzle out on its own. To your health!

The Daily Cup – A Different Angle

……………………………………………………..

Get your favorite lunch wrap or sandwich from your favorite deli. Better yet, try a sandwich you have not tried before. Also get a salad of your choice. Do not begin eating your lunch on the way back home or back to the office. When you get there, cut the wrap or sandwich in bite size pieces. Place the salad on a dish and the wrap around it. Add a few carrot sticks, because color is appetizing and chewing is satisfying. When ready to eat, sit in a place at work or in your home where you have not sat before. Savor the moment.
