A Prince, The Way, Irish soda bread, a snowy morn, Post Punk Kitchen, fire doodle, focal point


1. For the past two weeks home activities have been centered around our new wood stove: breakfasts, dinners, drawing, gazing at the fire...


2. A sitting- by- the- fire doodle.

3. What my sweetheart made us for dinner last night: Beet burgers and baked garlic and curry fries from Post Punk Kitchen and rum drinks... yum!


4. A beautiful snowy view on a Thursday morning (as I sat by the fire).

5. Irish soda bread and orange marmalade.


6. Watching "The Way" with my mom and grandfather which drew up some deep wonders within having been raised Catholic and my mom growing up with her family (as ex-pats) in Spain. Yes, rather Hallmark-ish but the connections to myself and my family were stirred in me. More than before, I want to walk it.

7. My mom adopted a beautiful 7 year old Siberian husky, Prince.
