I watched this episode and just about cheered.
"I got something to say to you, man!"

there'll be sun

This song has been making me consistently happy for about three weeks now, beyond all logic and despite endless repeats.  It's sunny. It's catchy. It's the best.

nightmares

I had a night of terrible dreams with recurring themes, and I woke up crying this morning. But I put on my dress with the polka-dots, and my Dad bought me a chocolate croissant with his coffee. I spent the afternoon on music and paint, and the shadow started to lift.
Do you get nightmares, too, or am I the only one?
Love.

every one.

"The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their forefathers. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord handed all their enemies over to them. Not one of all the Lord's good promises to the house of Israel failed; every one was fulfilled." 

~Joshua 21:44-45

the beat

 

I quite love Dallas Clayton. He writes and illustrates poetry for children (and sometimes adults) that's cheerful and nonsensical and poignant and lovely. He makes days like today a little more sunny. You should love him, too.

la Chandeleur

Because I needed a reason to celebrate, I claimed a holiday. February 2nd, La Chandeleur, Candlemas, a day upon which French people gather up their families and eat crepes by the stack. To keep with the tradition, I broke out my mom's copy of Mastering the Art of French Cooking and dedicated my afternoon to celebratory crepe-flipping.


The evening ended with Nutella and Buddy Holly, a pile of damp dishes on the drainboard and satisfaction.
