Please allow me a moment. I’d like to imagine a world that I’d like to live in. I’d like a world where I can go to sleep when I get tired. A world in which I can retreat when I need to be alone. I’d like to only be tempted by the foods that will … Continue reading »
A poem in dim light
A dream Beauty French language Candles Sensuality Safety Being Fire, changing, staring, gazing What is love? A dream. Sharing Music Fearlessness But not recklessness. I’m not wrong. The elements. Passion In all the elements. A photo imagined. A moment. A white table clothed Table on the beach The wind. Following. Love.
The L Word
This article is about rediscovering the meaning of the word “local” (with reference to food), with the good possibility of a few tangents. I look at the word, and ask myself what it means to me. I am sure this meaning will continue to transform. We may throw the L world around a lot, but … Continue reading »
From NYC to MV–Greenmarket Bounty
I went to the Union Square Greenmarket in New York City. Let’s just say I got a little excited, and distracted, by the bounty. I rescheduled my bus back to Woods Hole for 12:15 AM. At the time, an all-night bus ride sounded better than leaving in the middle of the day. More time at … Continue reading »

I am not an expert on these topics. But I have taken an interest in learning. Maybe it’s my new … Continue reading »
cuddly as a kick-ass cookbook (because before leaving home I make sure I know where the book is and give it a little tap, to insure myself it’s there, and that it will be there)
focaccia and a new pope… The day the world got a new Pope, Pope Francis, I baked my very first loaf of focaccia. The pope is going to be the religious and spiritual leader of over one billion people, more than a seventh of the world’s population. He was born in Argentina and is known for … Continue reading »
Spring is in the air..
I am not skilled enough as a blogger to portray the beauty of my day’s walk through photos. These images should not be lined up vertically, they should be in a collage, because in nature these images are overlapping and intertwining. I have almost made it through my first winter on Martha’s Vineyard. It is … Continue reading »
Get Up N’ Dance!
Warning. This post has links to some fun music. You may want to dance. I sit here listening to Janet Jackson, thinking about my week. The song is together again from her Velvet Rope album. I was probably twelve when I used to listen to this song. Last night I got in my car after work, and … Continue reading »
