SWINGING IN THE MOONLIGHT.....

It was a full moon yesterday night.The rain had stopped for a few hours...the kids were asleep..all the work was over for the day...looking out my kitchen window, I could see the swings in the garden beckon invitingly...and , I walked out into my beautiful moonlit garden.
It was silent ,and calm, cool, fresh, and everything had a shiny luminescence in the moonlight. Have you ever gone swinging in the moonlight?
For just a few moments, you can break free of self consciousness, you can find the simple pleasure that seizes you, the sort of pleasure no one can take away from you. The pleasure of being a child again, when nobody's there to judge you, when there's no great compulsion to be adult until you step off that swing, the pleasure of letting the air sail past your face, and the pleasure of jumping off at the apex of the swing's arc.....For a moment, you feel the pleasure of swinging , and jumping in the moonlight..Aaah..what utter bliss..all of you...you should try it...it's an unforgettable event...the freedom of swinging in the moonlight by yourself...
Enough of my ramblings....what shall we make today?How about a spinach roulade?It's quite hard to make the first time...but you it gets easier each time you make it...it's a surefire hit at any party or gathering...and nutritious too!!
