You are the trip I did not take;
You are the pearls I cannot buy;
You are my blue Italian lake;
You are my piece of foreign sky.

MY SYMPHONY

To live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart.... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common...............this is to be my symphony.

3 means it's sweet, 4 it's for cooking

I love this picture Frank took of a green pepper sitting on our island countertop. I am going to print one to hang somewhere in the kitchen, if I can find space! It reminds me how when Emily was a baby and was teething, she loved to gum a chunk of green pepper. I was in Sam's Club recently, and the produce guy told me that 3 bumps on the bottom of a green pepper means it's sweet, 4 means it's for cooking.
