it's so strange ... I know I've gone all quiet here - I have so much to say, to tell, so many thoughts, ideas, plans, recent revelations, etc. that I do really feel like talking about & sharing. I've been filling pages in my handwritten journal and maybe that's what's been happening once it's out of me & onto a page, somewhere, anywhere ... it doesn't seem to need repeating. One of these days soon I'm going to say lots + lots, I'm going tell you everything - so stay tuned, please.
recent activities include - taking lots of photographs / eating way to many chocolates / dilly dallying & wasting tons of time / dreaming & scheming & planning lots / working on a new logo & new web site with designer artist Anna Stowe / wishing I could twinkle my nose like Samantha of Bewitched for both good & evil / thinking about my "one little word" for 2013 / loving this sad song
but you went away, how dare you
I miss you, they say I'll be OK
but I'm not going to, ever, get over you

The last two weeks of the year, and especially the last week, are meant for indulging. So no such thing as "too many chocolates."
ReplyDelete#8. Garlicky? Gingery? Both?
Yeah to all of that (even down to the new website creation). And woah. That last quote.
ReplyDeleteHiya Amy - that last quote is the chorus from the song I linked to - such a pretty aching song about grief & Hey ! John yes sirree there's no such thing as too many chocolates & lots o' garlic, lots o' julienne fresh ginger (2-3inch piece), soy sauce, chilli garlic sauce :-) & a wee bit of brown sugar
