I was caught off guard by the light.

...

Last Friday

...

A thought occurred to me. Get your camera.

The light was neither perfect or imperfect. It was fleeting.

I would suspend my task (spicy sardine sauce) for the moment.

Giving Thanks

...

I keep typing and deleting. The weight of the words aren't matching the full breath of what I'm feeling.

You stop by. You read. You comment. You take a moment. For me. For this blog.

Thank you.

  1. The thing I love most about your blog (and there are lots of things) is the lack of need for words, your photos often say it all, (or say a bit and the rest can be filled in with a bit of imagination), but those words you do say are so very wonderful.

  6. Kath - I try to keep things simple. I appreciate your kind words. They mean a lot :)

    Wendi - You inspire me. Talk about authentic! :)

    Amelia - I feel like that's when things are at their best for me, when they're not planned. I've been pretty low-tech here, but I'll see what I can find out about subscriptions by email. Thanks for bringing that to my attention :)

    elisabelle - It was delicious. I realized some are turned off by tinned fish, but we simply love the stuff :)

    Denise - I knew you would :)

  9. This blog is an oasis for me. I tend to get anxious. Reading this blog feels like taking a deep, calming breath.

    So . . . no, no, thank you.

    for email subscriptions -> I am not very high tech myself... but I use feedburner (I feel like many of my friends prefer the email version)
