whatever makes me happy monday: luv rain and all things exquisite

things that make me happy on this 22nd of november


rain storms...the love kind



the ability to see the exquisite in everything

in the introduction of the Encyclopedia of the Exquisite, Jessica Kerwin Jenkins calls her book an “ode to life’s many luxuries that don’t require much spending.” inspired by a file kept on her desk filled with scraps which she titled ‘why i like it here,’ ‘here’ being earth, jenkin’s book is a delightful collection of the beauty all around....a lovely christmas gift for those who like to dream....


time with a true soul sista


and .....
my kind of thanksgiving prayer

you say grace before meals. all right.
but i say grace before the concert
and the opera,
and grace before the play
and pantomime,
and grace before i open a book,
and grace before sketching,
painting,
swimming,
fencing,
boxing,
walking,
playing,
dancing,
and grace before i dip the pen in the ink.
~ g. k. chesterton
