Rain beat against the cottage all morning & afternoon. Wind screamed against the window panes. I made more photo collages. Took naps. Read my latest Ivan Doig, Prairie Nocturne. Blissed out on winter.
Went to Trader Joe's for provisions and returned with free roses. Gah! 
Caught & released king size lizard climbing up window. Locked cat door. No hunting in stormy weather!
Go pursue some happiness with Maira Kalman. I'm going to Washington to make friends with the lady with the perfect red brows.
I’m loving this window on your life. Don’t you love rainy days when you’re safe at home?

I need to put twinkling lights up in my studio like yours. Gorgeous photos today…thanks for sharing!

There is something particular about the red that is red roses. It has greater volume and greater depth than other reds. It is a tactile red, asking to be touched. It is an audible red, radiating sound waves in wiggly lines. It defines r-e-d.
I am happy to visit another nook of your house.
I am a big Maira fan too…. I could be gushing right along with you..
Love that cloudy sky behind the flowers! And the raindrops on the window. Nice.
And Maira’s new blog! Thanks for the tip—I am a big fan of hers.
Happy President’s Day!
