Saturday

Today I cleaned our kitchen while listening to Bowie's Let's Dance album. I always forget how good that album is, every song. I took a picture of our fridge. Kinda weird, but I just have to document the fact that it is not covered in papers. It has stayed like this since July. A lovely triumph.



This morning we walked through a park near our house to a cafe to have breakfast.



We sat at a table that I fell in love with.



Sirena stopped by the cafe to drop off some books she had borrowed a while back. She also gave me a copy of the movie Broken English, which I have been dying to see again. And a little satchel full of gems from one of her baby showers-dark chocolate, soap and a pretty purple candle that came with this message: please light the candle in support of Sirena when you learn she has gone into labor. I can't wait to light it.



The house across the street from us is for sale. It's my favorite house on the block. Since it is for sale, I didn't feel as creepy stepping in to the front yard to sneak in a picture.



Don't you love the porches, especially the one on the top floor? I would read out there every morning.

I have been wearing these nonstop.
