VERTICAL FARMING

this is awesome and so inspiring it gives me the tingles! but i love the concept, and the fact that VF would actually give back to the earth. this is a proactive bunch. yea!

i could eat my face off

i am so hungry and d is making something FABULOUS for dinner. she's got all kinds of vegetables, herbs and oils out, chopping things and using utensils. i smell tantalizing aromas! oh! i am so lucky to have her. MAN, i'm starving. no one else eats as well as i do, i can guarantee that. [insert snarky lesbian comment here.] it's like having your own personal chef! and she really likes to cook, too. and ps. while she's at it she'll also set my coffee for the next morning and make my lunch for the next day. AMAZING! what do i do to deserve this? i'll tell you what i do; i eat it ALL.

A Thought

"What I need is perspective. The illusion of depth, created by a frame, the arrangement of shapes on a flat surface. Perspective is necessary...Otherwise you live with your face squashed against a wall, everything a huge foreground of details, close-ups, hairs, the weave of the bedsheet, the molecules of the face. Your own skin like a map, a diagram of futility, crisscrossed with tiny roads that lead nowhere. Otherwise you live in the moment. Which is not where I want to be."
-Margaret Atwood
