thar acton fr prwl wednesday january 33 iptw i ui w ra on oat s cm m aim o i ll jijfcajt by wendy thomson two queitiom thai tyierib frequently ask now arewhete do i get ideas for this column and ho do i spin the ideal out id never really thought about it much but she past week iv tried to keep track to i could answer them most of v kit ll wnlten has just happetwd and j merely spiel il off some ideas appear in my head wd whir around in there while i get a good look at them a few art ao preposteious that i skitter then off to some dark coiner li my mind and nreeft then under he mfc the mt keep whlrjmf preferably one at a tinuuntd they snowball into tontcthldj that might fill ivrt tmei of a scribbler because of my marvelous tense of routine and splilaecond timing i reach this point at she am of the deadline day thli meant that i mutt scribble ay until the three youngsters are moaning with hunger pangs and when they get so loud i cant concentrate i tush into live kitchen to make porridge to quieten them down then back to my writing after a few more paragraphs they are dancing at ihe jour hollering that lite bus is coming and wheres then lunch i drop my pencil throw an apple and a dry crust in each lunch bag and push them out lite door hy then its tune lo gel out the typewriter and try lo heal my scrawls into tome sort of acceptable form i hammer away all through captain kangaroo well the ihui slimy hand tells the seconds the big hand tcllt ihe minutes and ihe little hand tells the hour there wai a long silence then but what lelli the lime did you know that a sihpruitigly good topping for vanilla sceream it a carr of frojen grape juice thawed hut not diluted what it il about the sound and smell and feel of a newborn baby that makei anyone who hai ever had one feel so odd inside cord came home after teeing ihe new baby down ihe road enchanted and intrigued all over again one of our babysitters asked if i would write out the recipe for a take shed lasted liere once and described ii at spicy with raluni expensive to make with a whole lot of eggs round willi a little bit of icing i think what she meant was clove and mr dretsup and keep going clle com cloieit till i gel a kink in my hack then i know ihe column has reached lit proper length if all goet at usual i fly out ihe front door with my offering all ready to go in ihe mail just in linve to see the mail truck disappear up the road some of the ideas thai come lo mind never do snowball they just sit there since none are big enough to present on their own i thought id lump them together and have a column made up of fragments to begin with ive often wondered what my daughters grade i teacher thought of me live years ago when she heard be ills contribution to how animals carry things i had pasted on to belli a little piece of whimsy 1 had heard when i wai small catt have those little pockets in their ears to cjrty letter in and beth accepting it at gotpel truth passed it on to the class

comments that the exercised her grandmothers privilege to the the uront dry sarin kind and pui extreme and im sure she told but in the on for another hilf almost everyone she bumped into therefore i wasnt really surprised to see the incident written up in a vs womens magazine a couple of yean later it all happened quite a lev yean ago when we were visiting in toronto i decided to take beth and jim then four and a half and three to see my cousin attnd and her new baby since the was breastfeeding him i figured id heller pave the way for the questions that might fallow and told them that aslnd would be bathing the baby thengtving him his breakfast ot milk and orange juice when we arrived astnd was already nursing pefe and my two hood and watched roundeyed finally beth turned tgdrgsbnts to
