The Best Anti-Depressive

It's cold and rainy and just downright miserable outside. (So...what else is new? Does the sun ever shine in Philadelphia?) I'm snuggled up with yet another depressing book. (Is that sentence an oxymoron?) The book is "The Endless War" by Dexter Filkins, who covered the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq for the NYT. Needless to say, there are no happy endings in this book--just horrible stories and unending pain.

So what's the best antidote to this misery? It's spending a few hours with my darling daughter in her cozy house while Ms. Sweet Pea Nourishment cooks up some great smelling meals for her very lucky clients.
