felt … falling snow, wet and hard and unforgiving. this winter has been brutal. 30F has actually felt balmy around these parts.
saw … perfect 20/20 vision. my lasik procedure was a success and while i’m still recuperating, it’s been a revelation to wake up to an in focus world.
read … a book! actually, still reading it and i’m serious, i’m about 18% in and my heart is breaking already
a few pinterest & internet discoveries:
||i have a serious thing for tutus and sequins
||i don’t even like camping, but how delightful does this look?
||i have my heart set on making this, even though we’ve been shedding books
||i’m a fan of this solemn man and i need his action figure in my life
||this is magical
||my creative writing professor never gave us this assignment, thank gawd
||i loved this read so so SO MUCH: What’s wrong with me? Plenty. But that was never the point.
photo captions:
||it’s not so much the snow that kills me, it’s the damn cold. it’s like a soul-sucking siege, a state of which i see no end of
||weekends in general means dw makes breakfast. i’m not complaining, the man spoils me rotten
||not seeing these seeds any longer at the markets, meaning the season is over… meaning, winter needs to make her exit now already
||i walked into michael’s for yarn and walked out with these spoons, completely unnecessary
||finally, i signed up for a foodie penpal thing back in november. it happened to fall during a busy time and can i just tell you, seeing a package on my desk after an absence from the office was just what i needed. my penpal Alyssa sent me some trader joe’s ingredients and cookies will be forthcoming, i’ve had an idea floating in my head for the last 3 weeks and it just might be born this weekend… stay tuned. meanwhile, to join the fun, go here
last. i must share this with you. my current celebrity crush is tom hiddleston. i like me a bad boy and he as loke had me quivering. this is him doing a reading of ee cummings’ may i feel said he. swoon

Tom Hiddleton? Shoot, when you said something about him earlier, I kept thinking of Tom Hardy. He would definitely be my celebrity crush… uhh… Wuthering Heights? Warrior? Hell yes.
I am loving the sequins!! And that photos series beginning in the snow. I promise your winter will end! It will.
so i have wuthering heights on my netflix queue and been dragging my feet to watch it, because i can’t imagine hardy in a period piece. but hiddleston? i am swooning so hard for him right now, there’s a dork quality to him that is so endearing to me.
it started snowing again this AM. i am so over it.
Tom Hardy is great in that movie. SO AWESOME. What’s your fave thing Hiddleston is in? I need to watch more.
Sorry about more snow 😦
i’m kinda embarrassed, but, the only movies i’ve seen Hiddleston in are the Thor & avengers movies, when he’s an evil villain. i like me a bad boy. but, i have been trying to find a way to see him on stage, he’s currently performing in Coriolanus & i’m trying to figure out which theater in the city will be airing it. it’s mainly his off screen antics that have grabbed my attn….
Hiddleston is certainly very easy to look at, isn’t he?
yes he is! and then listening to him recite poetry. sigh.
i read that book too im am reading too..and its too hard to go further 😦 Happy New Year..if you are celebrating. Sequins , I heart them too.
it’s one of those books that begs to be read in one sitting but MY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT!
happy year of the horse to you too!
Happy New Year! Haha, I’ve totally done the impulse buying at Michaels. How can you not?!
i don’t even try to fight it, i just get it!
happy year of the horse to you!
