Experimentation

Silly or not, I keep thinking about the phrase, "Oh, So Frothy!" During the holidays, my daughter received a recycled Aerolatte, which is a small, handheld battery operated device that froths your milk for coffee. Since I'd never used one before, she explained to me how to operate it. I cannot begin to express the enormous amount of fun I've been having with this simple gizmo. I experimented with it by varying the milk types, foaming first then adding coffee, or reversing that process. I learned what worked and what didn't, like turning it on after inserting the spindle into the milk is a "yes." I enjoyed a good laugh when the milk splattered all over my face, clothes, and kitchen counter before I learned the trick.

Getting back to Oh, So Frothy!...aside from making me happy to say those words, the phrase reminds me that trying new and joyful things are delightful. Imagine that if something this small can produce such bliss, what else might be possible? It is in the spirit of fun, experimentation, and possibiliites that I enter this year.

Wishing you plenty of time to explore, enjoy, and discover both the tiny and big things that make this year particularly fabulous!
