a surprising discovery

A surprising discovery:
I have a better day when I know the kitchen is clean.
Which means I’m totally becoming a grown-up.
Which I totally don’t mind-

thanksgiving #2

Today I am thankful that sometimes what we are given is more wonderful than what we would want for ourselves.

unmatching socks

Some scribblings on living with Hannah Guerra:
I always thought that Hannah was the most beautiful of us. Her face was rosy and radient, full of the natural honesty of leaves and flowers. She wore openness on that face and unmatching socks on her feet tucked into shoes with the heels worn into the soles. She [...]

seven things about me

Thanks, Zee!
1. I like Adam to rub my head when I’m nervous or scared during a movie. It makes me feel safe.
2. I love vegetables. Few things are more delicious to me than a big pan of them roasted in the oven.
3. I love the scent of walnuts in their green shell. When [...]

tagged

I’ve been tagged by Zee to tell you seven strange things about myself. I will do that some day soon. But today, I just want to say that after searching myself for the girl that carried her stacks of books into the yellow house late one March, I find myself holding a wealth of memories [...]
