They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

Wow, it’s been nearly six months since I’ve updated this photo. Terrible going, I know. Well, these days, I’m either writing, or thinking about music. Not bad, eh?
Out Amongst the Trees
Day 6
Maybe it’s because I’m (supposed to be) reading Emerson right now. More likely, it’s just because it’s freaking gorgeous here, but I am in absolute fall colors heaven this weekend. The Mates are camped out at Roddy’s parents’ new house out on Cape Cod for our annual retreat, and we couldn’t have gotten luckier. The weather is perfect, the house is wonderful, and, as always, the company is fabulous.
No Capes!
Day 5
Edna is definitely my favorite character in The Incredibles. Takes no crap from anyone, says what’s on everyone’s mind, and is utterly fabulous, in a very-short-snappy-wears-glasses kind of way.
Old-y but Good-y
Day 4
Today, an old (not that old, in the scheme of things) friend visited. (Some small bits of thoughts follow..)
It just goes to show that a little time and space does wonders in putting things into a useful perspective.
This is hardly a cohesive (or coherent) blog post – but the joy in reuniting with old friends is enough to deserve comment.
On Maine
Day 3
(Whoops, I nearly let today get away from me. Well, technically I did, but it’s still Nov. 4 on the West Coast).
We woke up this morning to some fairly upsetting, if not altogether surprising news: the voters of Maine had approved Question 1, rejecting their legislature’s decision to allow same-sex marriage. Worse, the “No on 1″ campaign was far less blasé than its Californian Proposition 8 counterpart, which had been a big argument for why Prop 8 had passed last year in the first place.
Mmmmuffins
Day 2
Since I’ve started NaBloWriMo a couple days late, I’m going to try to catch up with the month either today or tomorrow.
I’ve been meaning to post about these delightful little muffins I baked for Sunday’s choir concert since I made them Sunday morning. They’re pretty easy to make and you could almost call them healthy… it also reminded me how much I love ricotta cheese. I might have to go out and buy some giant pasta shells so I can make manicotti, which was always one of my favorite pasta dishes.
Moosic, Please?
Day 1*
For a musical person, I know very little about a lot of music out there. Especially classic rock.
Breakfast for… midnight snack?
Hello, intrepid readers.
I’ve fallen quite hard into an addiction of foodblog reading (check back at the end of the post for some of my favorites), and have come across dozens of new recipes to try when the inclination strikes, and the wallet cooperates. Last night, after finally going grocery shopping (sharing refrigerator space with four other girls has proven to be more of a challenge than before, for some reason, and I was putting off shopping because there simply wasn’t room for anything I bought) I decided to put some of my recent buys to work, right away.

Thanks for hanging in there with me as my life (and schedule) has filled up. But just because I’m not posting here as often (time and money for recipe experimenting is at a low) doesn’t mean I’m not writing. Here are a couple of things I’ve been up to, in the online world.
