is it really just a bowl of ice ....



ok.
a bowl of ice could mean a lot of things.

maybe it's for blanching vegetables.
maybe it's ice cube soup. (i hope not)
or perhaps ....
Champagne needs to be chilled.
Maybe you'd like
to celebrate something
(really, you've made it this far,
so it's high time to celebrate
accomplishments of all states
and sizes).

and if you can't think of anything
to celebrate for yourself (really ? ? )
let's have a toast for my friend J.
who is engaged.
Yes: the real deal.
. . . . to be married!

flowery goodness for February




i think that
by the time February rolls
in, most people are
longing for springtime.
Valentine's day is coming up -
so i offer up some
cheerful flowers for you.

Valentine's Day
is an occasion that i believe
is too good to confine to
just one day. Let's
send each other flowers
and cards and i dare say:
Candy and chocolate; for a week.
Not
just a day.



Enjoy
