I salut you with a kefir smoothie! There is no shortage of beverages in this household (just five minutes ago I heard BC groan "so. much. liquid." from his office). On an average day there is coffee, almond milk, herbal tea, freshly juiced greens, kefir, wine (or gin) and of course, 10-12 glasses of water. Ridiculous!

I've become obsessed with moths. Again. Furry little lion men, focused on the light, weaving their way through atmospheric scentings in the night.

This one is my new favorite. But aren't they all? Isn't that what I say each time? But something in my heartstrings tugs and gets swept up in the orbit of those tiny dotted halos and I feel my solar plexus sprout wings and flap towards the moon.
Le sigh.

We've been staying up too late. Do you ever get stuck in one of those rotations where work carries into the evening, dinner happens a little later every night, and finally it's after midnight and you're settling in with a book and a cup of tea (see? I told you: the beverages are out of control). The thing is, I love to tinker in the dead of night, and at the same time I love to watch the sun rise. Really there are just too many interesting things to do to lay around in bed! I've never been good at it.

I'm reading a book about Frida Kahlo and fighting some very strong urges to paint the walls royal blue and all the furniture like fushias and lemondrops. Maybe I should just pile on even more jewelry and start pinning my curls up into a traditional crown and take a deep breath. That woman was such a spitfire in ruffles!

I just received a letter from a friend which included a DRAWING. I love this. She reminded me of just how much I love it, of the silly self-portraits I've done by the dozens to amuse their intended recipients. How do we forget about these things? I intend to bring them back, to sit myself down with a 2H pencil and a sheet of white and document some frivolity.
Alright all you moths and mothettes!
Signing off and sketching up,
