preach it, margaret

i just had a luxurious bagel with silky cream cheese and swirls of cinnamon and little raisins that were bursts of excellent chewiness...

i used to hate raisin bagels because i thought the raisins interrupted the texture... used to hate sprinkles for the same reason... but now, NOW i relish in a little interruption, a speedbump, a surprise, a reason to stop and think about it, a little unexpected sweetness.




.. having a delightfully aware and thankful Monday morning... (you can quote me on that)

a thought for wednesday

song of the day

The video concept is a little creepy but the song is awesome -- kind of like a more subdued Black Keys -- and the main character is really hot. And that never hurts.

My yoga teacher plays this every week. Makes me feel like I can do anything.

It's funny how a new hair color (from a box) and a bright pair of earrings can lift up your day. Even if that day is the day after a long holiday weekend.

Um, this guy is awesome. So is the song. Enjoy!
