10 More Lovely Things
1. ‘Meddle’ by Pink Floyd. If you don’t know, you should.
2. Making bead necklaces. I recently acquired an assortment of glass beads…some from Venice, some from Barcelona, some from Paris. Stringing them into pretty patterns on color coordianted threads has an uncanny calming affect.
3. In two weeks, I will see the Sistine Chapel. And buy records at the Portobello Market.
4. In three weeks, I will order the largest chai tea latte available, walk my dog, and go-kart with my boyfriend.
5. Turquoise wayfarer raybans.
6. I found the most wonderful crepe place today on Saint Michel. Grande Crepe avec Fromage: 2 euros.
7. And did you feel it, in your heart, how it pertained to everything?
And have you too finally figured out what beauty is for?
And have you changed your life? (last three lines of The Swan, Mary Oliver)
8. Bows. Everyone’s wearing bows lately. They’re on purses, coats, headbands, gloves… I like them especially when they’re ribbon tied into a ponytail. Its simple, pretty, and a bit playful.
9. The British Office. Having watched all of the American episodes, I have moved on to the equally hilarious yet slightly less appropriate version that started it all. The Brits don’t have the censoring we’ve got here in the states, I suppose.
10. At the end of a long day, I can still call and just say “hi”. And being able to do that makes me feel 100 million times better. Always.
