*there is something about my husbands hands that humbles me. they are strong and so much larger then mine. with them he creates the most inexpressibly beautiful music. he uses them to shape magic out of wood, doors and windows...which is to me so much deeper then functional. I find those hands more attractive then any.feature.on.any.human.anywhere.
*I have a passion for tea. I drink it numerous times a day. I love to make tea in large mason jars and set it in the fridge, topped with frozen berries and slices of lemon...always with a drizzle of honey or agave.
*I don't drink caffeine....much to my dismay as I have a huge deep passionate love for a perfectly blended spiced chai or a well made cup of coffee...you know, freshly ground organic/fair trade/shade grown/locally roasted goodness usually made in a bodum or espresso maker with a touch of organic/raw sugar and a splash of cream ((sigh)) my body has decided that caffeine just isn't for me:( so now I live through the aroma therapy of my hubby's morning java and chai's rooibos style.
*I think the smell of garlic cooking is sexy. seriously.
*I want to cook with you. I want to share laughter and tears that can only come through chopping, stirring and kneading.
*I love to dance around the kitchen listening to the gypsy kings, abrihim ferrer or french cafe music...really anything upbeat and ethnic that will bring out my inner belly dancer.
*I'm a lemonade maker...if ya know what I mean
*right now I have a cold:( I am wearing my jammies... desert pants and a gray long sleeved shirt, my padraig slippers on my feet even though it's august. my padraig slippers are medicine to me. I love their bright blue/turquoise/purple blended yarn, sheepskin lining and leather souls. they make me feel soulful even when I'm feeling icky
*said cold caused much brain fog this am that caused me a)sleep in and b) to completely forget that today was Edens first day of swimming lessons...oops
*I sing all the time. I dream that one day I will record a song in our studio and surprise you all...one day
*I spin fire....well, I used to anyway. one of these days I will light up again...fire dancing is good for the soul!
*I love the bumper sticker that says "kill your TV". it makes me smile and sing out a hearty gospel style AMEN! I think TV is a soul killer/spirit squelcher ...and while I do find the term "kill" a wee bit on the violent side I think that in this case it works
*I would love to post pic's again BUT I have still not set up my computer so...
*I am so excited to be establishing myself as a Birthing from Within Doula and can't wait to get to know that birthing community here. being a support for women in birth is something that I love more then word can express
*I am going to spend the day in the afore mention jammies, being thankful for spirulina and fresh fruit, playing with my kids and laying on the couch reading The Fifth Sacred Thing.
blessed day to you all!
oh that I could look so elegant in my ill, couch slumber, lol

Reading this post was such a deep, rich, full dose of you-ness. I could just eat it with a spoon...
I seriously want to hang out. Seriously. The yoga studio I go to burns incense and I love that my mat smells like it. The smell takes me there. I want to sit around a bonfire and have a beer and just chat. Okay? :)
I read your blog as I sit here with my incense burning. ;)
I do hope you feel better soon. Summer colds are the worst. Thanks for sharing yourself. I wished we lived close so I could dance around your kitchen with you! By the way, THANK YOU for your mama advice to me. :)
