You must feel gratitude for SOMEthing: your pillow, a marshmallow at a campfire, a song that reminded you of that time when you did that thing with your friends at that place and you all laughed… the book someone lent you that showed you how life can be; that blog post which inspired a poem you wrote. 100 words, right here. Just now now: 101.

About Grass Oil by Molly Field

follow me on twitter @mollyfieldtweet. i'm working on a memoir and i've written two books thus unpublished because i'm a scaredy cat. i hail from a Eugene O'Neill play and an Augusten Burroughs novel but i'm a married, sober straight mom. i write about parenting, mindfulness, irony, personal growth and other mysteries vividly with a bit of humor. "Grass Oil" comes from my son's description of dinner i made one night. the content of the blog is random, simple, funny and clever. stop by, it would be nice to get to know you. :)
