Melissa Clark’s Saturday Recipe

Consider the weekend, two entire days uncharted and unblemished, if you’re audacious, blanks to fill in however you wish. That is the view of the weekend from afar — from Thursday, say — when the demands of work or school chafe and you fantasize approximately how you’ll fill those unscheduled hours.

On Saturday mornings, I’m raw ambition. The bounty of 48 hours seems almost too much. What errand won’t be run? What household chore won’t be conquered? Let’s stack social engagements one on top of the latest, brunch to soccer game to your cousin’s bar mitzvah, let’s sleep when we’re dead! Or let’s sleep now, squeeze in a cat nap, perhaps a behind lie-down with a book? Surely there’s enough time.

Sometimes I’ll obtains a list of things I plan to do on a Saturday and then leer myself not doing any of them, almost as if absurdly proving to some invisible taskmaster that no one, not even me, will régime what I’m going to do today.
