It really is a changing world we live in, where we can connect with talent and soon to be friends from many countries, at our wee keyboards; perhaps, in time, this will be a tiny step toward tolerance and peace. Eleni, Thank you!
As tradition dictates I think it is our turn to list our addictions and to pass this award on to 5 (or is it now 7) other artists and, so here goes:
Five (ok 11) of my addictions
lattes and frappes
ok, not just lattes, food actually; good food, slow food, italian food, greek food, indian food, thai food, mom's food.. most food (oh and red wine).. did i say figs.. home baked bread
dreamy colours
barely there teacup blue, soft Italian yellow - those colours that affect you, make you flush when you gaze upon them
sleeping husbands
mine, when you can almost see the boy he once was, still is..
also his laughter, his smile, his all encompassing hugs
sleeping children
my children, when you can see where
angles wings have brushed their faces..
all children.. being a mother, a matriarch
eyes
when you can see to the other side..
where you get a glimpse of the soul
entertaining
friends in the hot tub.. more food
old things
linens, marble chunks, photos
beauty
art, creating, giving, receiving, daydreaming of
the written word
writing, prose, poetry, reading, language, thesaurus
movement
cardio, abs, running, hiking, skiing, dance,
most sports, my kids sports
joy
beauty, fun, flowers, fields of flowers, milk bottles of flowers, tulips.. anything i enjoy and i want more of
oops, i'm getting carried away.. more importantly..
The Winners Are..
(drum roll here - check these web sites out.. really!)
