A guy after my own heart

Got from @nybooks this nice tweet: “Happy birthday to Edward Gorey, who loved vampires and Edwardian ladies, ballet and books, cats and bats.”
That was a guy after my own heart.
Look at the article in the NYRblog
Lemongrass
Also called citronella, the cymbopogon citratus is a grass -one of more than 55 kinds of grass-, a fragant one. Used for cooking -very common in Asian cuisine- and for ‘medical purposes’, but it is also a fine plant for the garden.
“Plant lemon grass in big pots for the patio… it repels mosquitoes and it grows tall & thick providing a lot of privacy.” shares Anna Bumbgarner in Pinterest
The day after
The day after Valentine’s Day. It was joy, it was love, it was fun.
As you can guess my doctor and I had a fine time, we had a whole evening to spend together -no calls from the hospital!!-, had dinner in a nice place, drank a bottle of wine -good one-, share the pleassure of being together. No fancy presents, just chocolates both ways… and a wonderful evening. Thank you my darling dear.
Plans
Plans and Projects… I have been considering changes in decor at home for ages, and finally I have started major changes in my studio. Old book shelves are going out, new ones are being organized, actually it is a do-it-yourself project, and I am enjoying it so much! At ease, taking my time, having fun even when the unexpected appears. Let’s say that my studio is showing all the similarities it has with life.
New Year
A 365 days’ opportunity… to grab the fine things of life.
