Inspiration

Tuesday afternoon I was in the kitchen baking a cake for an upcoming church function, and Claire was sitting at the window-seat table doing her homework. As she usually does in the afternoons, Claire asked what we were going to have for dinner. Since I plan most of my meals, I usually have an answer ready for her.

Tuesdays have been my days to make a new meal plan and shop for groceries; however, that Tuesday I had hosted a lunch party instead of grocery shopping. I told Claire that I hadn't decided yet what we were having for dinner.

After a few minutes of silent working--I on my cake and she on her homework, she asked seriously with wonder, "Gray, are you baking that cake to get some inspiration for dinner?"
