washing peppers
Elevating the mundane to a meaningful level. Recognizing the rhythm of routine. Finding beauty in the passage of time. These are the themes this week- and possibly next week too. No special events or staged photos, just little bits of our everyday existence.
A few people who get it and do it well:
3191
Shari
Aug. Polaroid Project
And of course, this incredible book which I have yet to see in person.
Any others that I might need to check out?
I'll back in full force in a week or two, with art, handmade goodness, a freshened up website and hopefully a little bit of news to share.

I'm looking forward to seeing the world through your everyday eye. I really like that old colander.

Eliot and I spent a very happy half an hour washing cutting sorting and eating peppers that I brought home from Farmer's Market on Saturday. Embrace the moment. :)

what a wonderful way to usher in a new rhythm for a new season. i'm a few days behind you - still bumping around after vacation and not yet settled back into any sort of routine. i appreciate yours - living vicariously.

Did you grow those? Not even my herbs made it through this heat. Of course, it would have helped if I had watered regularly. :)
