some days, the things that you think are going to be so hard to get through, turn out to be not so, after all.
a street cleaner goes past our house, and it seems old-fashioned to me, for some reason.
anna can make up our shopping list by drawing pictures, and i realize this is actually, legitimately helpful.
i also realize that i am made to feel quite happy when people eagerly eat what i put on the table for them.
the colors of the holidays are not really red and green; they are the colors of pine needles, and frosted windows, and dark chocolate, and bright tissue paper, and tea with honey and lemon.
i miss friends and family who are far away very much right now.
i'm really crazy for these.
and i'd like to report that jen's gingerbread was easy and awesome. if you all lived nearby, i'd bring some over and we could have a good chat.
best wishes. thanks for reading.

i loved those when i saw them at UF last year. so very cute.
can we add holly berries to your list of colors?
those sneakers rock! maybe it's not too late to add them to my wishlist.
your description of holiday colors is perfectly perfect.
saw those shoes yesterday while out and about and can confirm...they are way cool.

I really like the details in this post Tara, with the colors of the holidays and lists of pictures. And I just want to cozy up in your home. That first photo is wonderful especially.
Those days are such a pleasant surprise, much better than the reverse. I love the idea of an illustrated shopping list and your holiday color descriptions are lovely, so much better than plain old red and green. Thanks for writing.
like Heather, i'm taken with the first image - the candlelight through the textured glass, then the frosted bottle beside it. and that bowl, well, it's just too pretty.
