garlic scapes
garlic scapes pesto (perhaps I will post a recipe tomorrow–?)
food, eating, food, eating food, food in general, dreaming about making delicious recipes, even if I never make any of them, eating delicious food that someone else makes, more food
the arugula I mentioned in a post a while back? I love it mixed in fresh green salads–fresh greens right out of the farm field with the best homemade effin’ dressing in the world (recipe soon–??)
fonts (but maybe not enough to pay $30 a year on wordpress to change them on my blog)

sleeping in oh my god do I love sleeping in
money: having it, having enough of it, having more of it
friends….you already know that I love my friends and that I form intense bonds with people; but also, I really love my kids’ friends (well, except for that one boy who put a sucker in my hair that one time about 10 years ago…wait, that’s a lie, that was my nephew, 20 years ago and I’ll bet one of his own 2 sons have already karmically paid his debt)
the advent of summer (though not the thought of the already-short New England days getting shorter)
Calla lilies. Without a doubt the most sensual flower I know, if only because of the beauty in their simplicity.
Re:money. The good fortune to be able to earn it.
I wonder if you can grow calla lilies around here. Someone gave me a beautiful potted one once, but it died. I have good luck with some plants, both indoor and outdoor, but I do kill some of them and then I never try again.
I am not gainfully employed right now, so I can’t really talk about money. I just sponge off my husband. But yes, any of us should be grateful to have the good fortune to earn it. Able-bodied and able-minded, plus being in the right place at the right time…It’s even harder to make an honest buck with so much corruption in the world.
Hey, alpha, thanks for reading! twinkly
Put those Callas in the ground Twink. Just make sure to cut them back and dig them up in the fall, the bulbs won’t survive the winter. All kinds of expert advice available on how to winter them and when to replant in your climate zone, I’ll leave it to them.
I have no room for more plants (I am lazy in gardening as with many other things). I need to separate some plants and clean things up before I can add. Then again, I may have a little space in that one corner….
