grateful for.... (spanning a couple days here)

-tavi! and my friends, who brought her awesome tiny little self into my life. check it.

- this and this and this, two of which i made this week and one on the menu for this weekend.

- warm, dry house. nor'easter. truly, folks, it's a shame that i even know how to spell and define that word. i grew up in sc. many of my years spent living there on the gorgeous, laid back coast, cutting class (cutting work, whaaaat?) to go to the beach. a sunny, breezy happy beach. le sigh.

- this book i just finished and loved. makes me more excited than before (possible? i didn't think so, but...) for costa rica in feb!

- this song, that came on during my commute this morning. over 12 years old and still know all the words, thanks to courtney and me playing about 14 million times in high school. fun way to start off the weekend.
