Pick Me Upper

A blogger can't afford to be dull or bored or any of the darker things that one naturally experiences in the ebb and flow of life. Truth be told I find myself completely unmotivated this week. It must be related to my absence at the gym. I find that my desire to make anything is dramatically increased by a good sweat. It's amazing how that works, but I miss a few days and nothing stirs me.

These poor neglected beauties were scavenged from the fridge at the studio today for a little pick me up-visual candy.

When asked this week by an ex who just became a father, "Are you happy?"
I swallowed my complaints and said, "I'm happy to be alive."
JEEZE, I could have spared him the passive drama and just said, "Oh Sure."
There's really nothing serious for me to complain about except my presently self-indulgent ennui and about 800 calories in the Pistachio Gelato which I now need to work off at my hateful spin class!
I spin cause I'm not thin, don't hold it against me.

Summer Scents

Summer, although limited in range, has it's own charm with it's wildflowers and grasses and drought loving herbs. Now is the best time of the year for the fragrant greens with their tiny blossoms conjuring all types of uses making you both hungry and thirsty at once. You'll be seeing a lot more on this blog in the next few weeks so get down with it cause I'm breaking into it them all and the mini pears, apples, figs and beautiful vegetables that come right alongside them in the crates at Union Square.
Lest we forget, it's also Zinnia, Dahlia and Cosmo time! I love the lovely flirts how can one not?
