See:
True Blood season 2 begins
pink roses against green clapboard
tomato flowers
the crazy array of stains on my chef's coats - green, red, orange, brown, black
my sister surprised/impressed with her relaxed and happy kids after I had them for the afternoon
a glorious, glittery, paint spattered mess
bruise on my foot
birds munching on mulberries in the back yard
Hear:
grackles tussling at the bird feeder
"this is the best day ever" while watching my nephews
my new bicycle wheels
more rain
a distraught friend on the phone
Melody Gardot, Phoenix, Ladyhawke and Ben Kweller's new records
Taste:
birthday ice cream from The Bent Spoon in Princeton: fresh NJ ricotta, dark chocolate earl grey, cardamon and ginger
lobster enchiladas at Langosta Lounge in Asbury Park
Vosges Mo's bacon chocolate bar
moussaka - my last frozen casserole made from last summer's eggplant harvest
Feel:
the walk in door slamming on my foot
sheet pan burning the side of my hand
hot water splashing my neck when someone dropped lobsters into a pot behind me and didn't warn me
screaming tendon in my left leg
pulling my shoulder while falling down the stairs -again - i am such a spaz
strapping on my bicycle helmet for the first time
pulling yellow rain boots over my favorite jeans
getting teary while reading my birthday card from Sweets
Smell:
sizzling bacon
tomato plants
cigarette yuck when my mom got in my car
grilling corn
minty analgesic balm rubbed into my aching hands
