21) fries and a cheeseburger -- still the best junk food and dinner for under $5 (and yes I know that mature people are supposed to have outgrown McDonald's but... I never said I was mature); 22) a farewell afternoon with a lovely friend spent watching Sense & Sensibility and discussing life and Jane Austen; 23) lace curtains making the light all soft and pretty.
24) ^ this timber pathway, down among the mangroves and the marsh grass, dotted with afternoon sunlight; 25) the thought that my littlest brother is flying into Queensland this very night; 26) everything that has ever come from Rosemary Sutcliff's pen; 27) getting a good grade in a scary subject.
28) LiveJournal, and all the excellent people I know there; 29) candlelight; 30) ceiling fans -- oh, how thankful I am!* * * * *
Conversations:
Caitlin -- I enjoyed it so much. The scene at the end, with the lake covered in lilies... was exactly how I've always imagined it.
Meaghan -- re. Dawntreader: Caspian seems to be in his early twenties, which is definitely substantially older than in the book. He and Peter are meant to be close in age; re. chocolate mousse: revenge is so, so sweet; re. being on my list: you will always be 'on my list' :D; re. holidays: YES HOLIDAYSSSS! Welcome to yours! And PS: spam my blog whenever you want. I like it.
Mitanika -- inspiring you to go home and read your Bible straight away might not have been the filmmaker's intentions, but I bet it made Clive Staples happy :). PLEASE do a big flaily blog post about it. I want to read your thoughts and squee with you!
Samantha R -- I need to remember that quote and ponder it regularly.
Asea -- Saturday; that's today! Enjoy the lovely Dawntreader and remember that the sea around the ship is my sea, in my town! ;)
Rachael -- beautiful indeed :).
I love your photos that go along with your posts. They make me smile. They always do!
ReplyDeleteI gotta admit that McDonalands is my least fav. place to go but sometimes you just "need" a french fry =P
Do you like S&S? I like it though P&P is more of a fav. with me. We've been watching Wives and Daughters recently :)
Yay for good grades and LJ!
Beautiful! I'm enjoying these 100 joys of yours :-) Happy sunny Sunday to you x
ReplyDeleteThat last photo is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I wish I could find a way to comment on your photos on Tumblr, but it appears I'm not allowed to do so. Therefore, I shall leave a comment here: I really liked the bark photos you posted recently. There's so much beauty in them.
I love it when you photograph your plates coz I have those same ones in my house too!! They are our semi-good plates so it seems naughty to be using them for fries :) However, there is nothing better than fries and a cheeseburger of the McDonald's variety, so why on earth not use them for such noble purposes?!
