happy happy october ;)

October 16th, 2008

happy october! it’s my favorite month of the year. the weather is perfect, warm days, crisp evenings, the leaves are changing. i can almost smell the campfire smoke even in the middle of the city. i like the way the word rolls off my tongue, i love the color orange, i somehow feel more justifed in making pumpkin walnut bread and soups. and life starts to slow down…just a little.

a belated beginning

September 30th, 2008

to mirror the reality of my life, this constitutes a belated beginning to my non-sequitur, and now manifest, musings. i’ll attempt fluidity and see where it takes me.
