In Celebration

Today I'm feeling every moment of my 34 years. My shoulder aches for the bitter cold weather, I feel the chill all the way down to my bones. I've decided that I need some very still, very quiet time sitting on the couch, bathed in sunlight. Today is a day so full of everything I need. I feel joy, very softly and quietly and truth be told- somewhat timidly... heck, I may even splurge on myself and turn the heat up from 64 to 68 just to celebrate! And here are the things I observe from my perch:


Knitting Aqua with cherry red needles



loving up my new cashmere stripey socks.. worn, of course, with cropped and ripped jeans and weathered black Danskos



Reading and planning a gluten free menu based entirely from the pages of Living Without magazine



Holding a chubby little, milk and butter and soup sticky hand while watching a marathon of Charlie and Lola episodes. I'm loving how just above our clasped hands are the words "so good"
