It's winter.
There's snow.
Skies are gray.
But Cape Cod is calling.
With sun.
Blue skies.
Sea mist and flowers.
That ride to the Lighthouse will have to wait.
Anticipation and memories must satiate.

Tara.
My cat.
Brings me roses.
Drops them at my feet.
Where she finds them-
who knows?
But she always knows when I need one.
...lately, she's given me a few.

In November, I had a "Thanks-Giving" offer to my subscibers & buyers to win a free painting from Lightcaught. This painting "NE Coast" was chosen and won by Dorothea Readhead of Carson City Nevada.Interestingly, the largest category of paintings chosen were related to the ocean. And, a number of people chose these same paintings: "Perfect Day", "Summer Day at West Beach," "New View," and "April Rainbow."

Tis' the season.
Like Santa, the Nutcracker is ubiquitous.
But the star of this night is Clara.
He's in her arms ready to come to life and take her away to the Land of Sweets, flowers, snowflakes and dreams.Little princess– dance!

The storm is coming.
A tsunami of holidays.
Expectations; stress.
Pressure, depression?
Take a breath.
Stand on your sea legs.
Enjoy the roiling wave of friends, food, fun and song.

In high school the first perfume I bought was Jungle Gardenia in an effort to duplicate the unforgettable, heady scent of my gardenia prom corsages. But, later when I was working as a college intern I decided to pick out a perfume to match the woman I had become. It was L'Air du Temps in a beautiful Lalique bottle with a bird on top. Today when I smell the blend of gardenia, musk, rose, carnation and sandalwood it takes me back to that day when I chose my first 'grownup perfume'.

Tea for two.
or a party of three?
Scones and things.
Real cups- a sip.
A moment of calm
with no dot com.

November.
We think of food.
Thanksgiving.
Time to feed the hungry.
Feed the mind.
Feed the soul.
Watercolor, 5x7, $100.
Buried in the leaves.
A house emerges from the treetops.
Like a Phoenix rising.
From the fire.
