Why Don’t You…?

Why Don’t You…?
Carly Jacobs

Blend milk, dark chocolate chips and a dollop of cream with a healthy splash of kahlua? Have a cheeky adult milkshake?

Buy a cotton and silk blend kaftan? Wear it floating around your house in the evening?

Borrow a dog? Take it for a walk? Sit on a park bench and watch it frolic in the grass?

Ride the train to the end of the line? Spend the day in an unknown suburb? Discover sweet new cafes and boutiques?

Do a handstand against the wall?

Pick wildflowers? Arrange them messily in old glass jars in your house?

Grab your umbrella and walk in the rain?

Commission a young friend to make your Christmas wrapping paper? Give them a stack of large drawing paper and pay them per sheet to decorate it for you?

Have a coffee AND a cool drink? Simultaneously?

Wear a denim shirt? Tucked into tailored shorts? Loose over a mini skirt?

Read a comic book?

    I love the Christmas paper idea! Pity my niece and nephews are all in senior highschool now… Perhaps I could start hanging out around playgrounds…?

    I would really like one of those adult milkshakes of which you speak right about now, not to mention the dog (preferably my puppy, but really any would do as I’m going through dog withdrawal living among way too many humans)!
