i would like to be a little magic someday.

i want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be -
and then fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth.

i think i need to start cooking again...it's been a little [read: a looong] while & i miss the kitchen - the sharp knife that i pretend to wield so professionally, the garlic smell on my hands, the olive oil beading on the avocado...the list goes on. i miss it, i must get there, this this photo inspires that feeling.

it's here.

i love spring anywhere, but if i could choose i would always greet it in a garden.

it's starting. spring has sprung here, the magnolias have nearly all fallen off the branch and lilacs are just holding onto being a a bud for one more day. THIS is my favorite time of year.

ok, so i have a bit of a crush on the lead singer of the killers...if it's wrong, i don't wanna be right! their songs make me want to wear my sunglasses at night and drive around with the top down...but what doesn't really?

dear momma,

happy mother's day, to my mom & all the
wonderful women in my life who have
had a hand in raising me.
i love you all ;)
