Vacation

Just got back from Paris and Barcelona. As expected, my return home was rather lackluster.

Winter Garden

I am seriously enjoying the new Tindersticks album. It's their best in years. I get all day-dreamy when I listen to it. In fact if you play this song..

Come Inside by Constellation Records

....and look at these photos from Hunting and Collecting's FW 11 lookbook, you might begin to understand.

January so far

Recently...

It's a living thing...

Any illness-related posts have now gone to Sandwich Tears (another blog...I need to downsize big time). In the meantime...I recently acquired this original globe terrarium at a sidewalk sale for $5. She must have been nuts, but I thank her for it. I designed a terrarium set up and am so pleased with the results. Hopefully my succulents like the new space...time will tell!

Life is a whole lot of this...

Still with this illness (now diagnosed chronic boo lame) which leaves me with just enough energy to just cook, and not much else. Still updating my tumblr since its easier for now...

Nennette et Boni

Posted this on the tumblr a bit ago, but wanted to share here. I adore the Tindersticks and am sad they are only touring their live show of their Claire Denis film scores in select cities. I did enjoy this clip they posted to promote the series, from the amazing Nenette et Boni. I keep watching it and wishing I was swimming. The whole soundtrack is ridiculously magical.
