we are renovating. it seems that paint fumes have gone to my head because i have the attention span of a gnat. needless to say i won't be reading war and peace this year. blog posts are more my speed these days. i read this one on health and diet (and life) last week and have been thinking about it ever since. i don't know if i agree with the thesis, but it is thought provoking and worth reading. in fact, all the posts are

i'm not the one who is going to typically introduce you to new good songs. i don't know who is cool or hip or innovative. i do, however, know what i like; stuff that you want to sing along to, stuff that makes you feel happy, and stuff that makes you want to dance. i have been listening to firefly by owl city on repeat for about two weeks. so your self a favor and listen to it now and then write me back and tell me how you think this song sounds like love (because it totally does).

reading: The Book Thief - excellent, unusual and unforgettable metaphors - a true wordsmith - tragic yet beautiful characters - I wish I had written that book. Also enjoyed The Help.

eating: spicy nuts (mix egg whites, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 T cinnamon and 1 tsp cayenne pepper. Stir in variety of mixed nuts - I prefer pecans, almonds and cashews. When thoroughly coated, pour onto a cookie sheet that you have greased - bake at 300 F for one hour stirring every 15 minutes. Cool thoroughly before packaging. Enjoy.
