love list:: the last two weeks

cold house + warm bed.  unintentional afternoon naps.  one perfect batch of chocolate peppermint cupcakes.  eating dinner cross-legged on the couch with pillows and blankets.  the little women soundtrack.  unexpected storm clouds, dark ones.  creative non-fiction.  chili-cheese fries.  water.water.water.  brown leather anything.  ten days under 95 degrees.  plum eyeliner.  classic crime, phoenix.  someone else's unsecured wifi.  charts for exercise.  charts for dailies.  dishes ignored, finished or not.  small notes on my lunchbox.  small pictures on my nightstand.  the tie-rack serving as jewelry-rack finally on the wall.  the miracle of the pineapple lamp still in one piece (here & here).  a week of not-too-early mornings.  the tipping point of a pumpkin splurge.  craving vegetables, not chocolate.  blue jays & scissor-tailed fly catchers.  fresh cilantro.  rowing.  wintercrest.  running in the rain (seattle throw-back).  lego storm troopers framed.  the turquoise pen.  big bracelets.  overnight oats with peanutbutter and cocoa.  finally acting on the urge to write.
