Have a Lovely Weekend!

Wishing you much love, warmth and comfort... here is a theme I'm noticing with cups positioned alongside or on top of novels or yummy treats (or both!) and to me, these images make me feel cozy and loved... I created a small gallery of them at Flickr where you can visit if you'd like, leave your comments for the photographer, and be inspired by seeing them in larger sizes.

Whether you're spending today and this weekend with friends and family, or sitting alone on your sofa with Chinese take-out and old films, please have a warm and lovely time at it! I'm sick at home popping Advil while watching adventure films and chipping away at two novels, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee by Rebecca Miller and Coco Chanel, A Biography by Axel Madsen. My sweet husband is cooking me one of my all-time favorite meals, I hear him busy in the kitchen as I type this, dropping things, unscrewing lids, chopping, these little sounds are lovely, you know? And though sick on what should be a vacation time off, I'm still happy, which is the greatest comfort of all.

I've missed talking to you this week. I'll still post once-a-day next week, but blogging will not resume full-time again until after the new year. What are you doing? How are you?
