How timely... as we were over at a friend's getting jars of fresh warm honey and just talking about Marie's book, since my friend has a little patch of land and has a prosperous farm. Her photos are great (reminds me of growing up in NYC +NJ) and I love how she puts the temps, etc...brrrrrr. Tail wags to all. ~mooseMoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05908769692680628392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-64898029777390948902013-10-18T21:42:02.250-03:002013-10-18T21:42:02.250-03:00Love that lush loaded balcony.Love that lush loaded balcony.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-13536377142305605222013-10-18T19:36:50.334-03:002013-10-18T19:36:50.334-03:00ps Marie I myself love to cook, and I so loved the...ps Marie I myself love to cook, and I so loved the paragraph I pulled from your intro - it so beautifully & exactly expressed thoughts I didn't quite realize I had about my own feelings about cooking. That last line "even if it's just melted cheese on toast" - made me feel very happy, content & hopeful ;-)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-73045409437718054882013-10-18T19:31:29.347-03:002013-10-18T19:31:29.347-03:00thank you Marie ! & loads of love from the ga...thank you Marie ! & loads of love from the gang here at 29 Black Street <br /><br />Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-74615691598023088662013-10-18T19:18:47.627-03:002013-10-18T19:18:47.627-03:00Thank you very much, Susan.

Your own aesthetic and way of communicating it are wonderful, and they make yours an especially meaningful appreciation...Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17086277483606295046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-31737618333293228962013-10-18T15:06:20.504-03:002013-10-18T15:06:20.504-03:00Honestly John I can't remember how I stumbled ...Honestly John I can't remember how I stumbled upon Marie and 66 Square Feet but I suspect it may have been through the beeg, blag, cads blog many, years ago when I'd first begun blogging. Perhaps it was from fellow cat lady Rachel at Slow Lane Life linked over to Estoboro's hilarious blog & from there to Marie's. I feel the same amazing connection to my virtual friends & family that you do. I think that's exactly why I felt like carrying the book around and hugging it last night because for me also it "represents taking that unexpected turn and savoring all that followed".<br /><br />Now with Storbie's health much improved after his unfortunate Typhoid scare + this very exciting move to Harlem, well ... savour, savour & more savour ;-)<br /><br />It feels like I've known you & Marie & Storbie forever, it feels like we've already shared laughter over drinks, had great conversations & enjoyed each other's company many times, well you actually have done those things - cat sitting E on several occasions and enjoying the hipness of Brooklyn + the fabulousness of NYC - which I continue to be tres envious of. One day I will cad sit the E cad. It feels like we are great longtime friends ... & we are. <br /><br />xo to you friend, Susan & les GangSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-65479644044771196842013-10-18T14:24:42.384-03:002013-10-18T14:24:42.384-03:00It is a great book!

Treasure.<br /><br />I found Marie's blog when I was looking for images of plants for my garden. Noticed she liked cats, food, travel in addition to gardening: what's not to like, so bookmarked. Then through comments on Marie's blog, I found friends like Susan Black, Jane Winter, Bonbon Oiseau, Diane Patmore, Linda Carson... Eventually opened up the world of NYC to me. So for me the book also represents taking that unexpected turn and savoring all that followed.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09988578320959278942noreply@blogger.com
