Use the passage to answer the question.

Gabriella’s favorite day of the week was Sunday because she had nowhere to be and nothing to do. She would usually wake up and head outside to the porch, sometimes with a book in her hand, sometimes not. Every now and then a car would crawl by or the wind would blow a delicate breeze to remind her that she was not floating on a cloud; she was on her grandparents’ porch lying in a hammock, arms above her head, lost in a daydream. Eventually, she would head in for a cup of tea with her grandmother, and then she would stroll into town and pick up some fresh vegetables to cook for dinner.
