mornings on a farm in india (sometimes)

this is from my perspective, i'm sure it is different for zoe.

6:00 annoyed by phone alarm
6:05 leave bedroom, going back in a half hour to get zoe who was too tired
6:10 drank chai, squatted down by cooking fire because it's cold without the sun
6:20 cooking dosas, realize it's awesome, left fire to get zoe
6:25 cooking dosas with zoe i begin to grind up coconut chutney
7:20 writing down coconut chutney in blog
7:50 begin eating breakfast with everybody
8:20 starring aimlessly out the front door at nature
8:30 cleaning up, pulling water from the well to drink, listening to birds
8:40 working in the garden pulling weeds, find strange insects, zoe joins me and waters the eggplant
9:20 water tank runs dry, we turn on pump to fill it back up, it gets hot
9:50 give up working, plan on a wash
9:55 decide not to wash, go read instead
10:30 chai time, we eat gooseberries too and some left over dosa
10:45 read again, fall asleep
12:30 wake up, attempt to not wait to eat
12:45 waiting to eat
1:00 awesome lunch
