n o d d y b o o m: settling in

July 28, 2009

settling in

1. we leave our shoes by the door (do u haiku?).

2. homegrown tomatoes and giant green beans.

3. strong jasmine green tea; steeping.

4. figs, sour dough bread, dates.

sooo enjoying being home. every little bit of it. i had a couple of days where i was uninspired and dragging for whatever reason, but i think i'm over that hump and ready to dive back into all my projects. tomorrow i might ride my bike around, looking for a new favorite coffee shop that i can plant myself in and do a little writing. i'm way behind in my (writing) class, but i think i'll just upload the lectures (it's an online class) and plod along at my own pace. it's not a race, after all.

here are some cool links i thought i'd pass along:

ikea hacker chicken hutch.

this baking blog.

all about what kinds of pesticides you can find on your food.

have a lovely evening *

hi alexandria,
thank you so much for the nice compliment! i haven't written a haiku in a while. i'm glad to have time (and a proper internet connection!) to do so. it's fun and meditative, somehow. i hope you'll join us too! i know you would write beautiful haiku. and your photos are sooo lovely...
have a beautiful evening,tifanie *

re-entry hi there. we are back. we are settling in. behaviors are haywire. it's a bit of a rough week for me and i'm just trying to get everybody back into a routine so they can settle down (they being the kids, in case you didn't pick that up) and i can (hopefully) find a little time to focus on my long neglected writing/photography classes and blog and studio space including one desk piled sky high with papers that need to be dealt with. sigh. i thought i'd post a couple of cello camp photos just to share a little piece...

giant green beans just so you can see how big they really are! we haven't cooked any yet, but we are enjoying looking at them. perhaps tomorrow we'll saute them in butter. mmmm. have a lovely night (almost morning! jeesh, i'm up late). take care *
