Start with gratitude.

Every moment is a choice.

A watered-down cappuccino, a re-read an article, an inventory of the beauty of the week.

Never go after 9 a.m. on a Saturday morning.

The day after is always more painful than the day of.

All black + kimono one more time to really feel into it.

“Serve the gift.”

Dried rose petals on top of honeycomb. Slices of dried quince and pear, and apricot artfully layered. Gold leaf on dried figs.

A long table full of love.

Constantly being reminded that what was once a baby is now riding in cars being driven by boys that we also think of as our babies.

Go be free.
