a long overdue gratitude list...

i am grateful for:

3. a wonderful day in nyc with deb, jen f. and keegan

including brunch at jane and looking around in

evolution, pearl river and muji without

the need to really buy anything...

class and painting golden designs on fabric without

any help that were later called "beautiful" by pema...

beets, brocolli, carmelized onions and goat cheese...

making + eating our dinner... - a truly creative meal...
