Now I become myself. It's taken time, many years and places...

* Yogi tulips in our kitchen, stretching and bending towards the light

This morning there was chocolate mint tea with a dear friend and this afternoon brought thunder and hurried raindrops after months of absence. In this breath I am grateful for a husband home again after another week away, this time in Shanghai and Tokyo. I am grateful for the sound of my mother's cheerful voice on the phone, the funny dog curled up in his bed by my side, and spaghetti squash with marinara (made with rosemary and oregano from the garden) for dinner.

Life is sweet. I hope for you too.

Happy for the sweetness in your life. (Also, love spaghetti squash, with butter and garlic or with marinara. I must make some soon. :)

I looove spaghetti squash.

I'm trying to tie up all my loose ends this weekend, (before I come!)

I have never tried spaghetti squash...it sounds wonderful. A good thunderstorm seems to make everything fresh again. Hope you have a delightful weekend filled with more of life's sweetness. :)

Sweet indeed. This post fills like a gratitude journal. Something I've been considering rekindling. Love the tulips too!
