I'm feeling a little winter-y this cold, dark morning. Well, I imagine that it's cold (because I'm depressed to be up so early) -- I'm waiting until the last possible minute to step outside.

Just poppin' in to share this fruity mix -- citrus fruits are the best! Blood oranges, though, are by far my favorite. :)

Anyone who knows me even peripherally knows that I'm utterly obsessed with the color purple. I've got purple shirts, dresses, outerwear (including ski jacket), pants (including ski pants and trendy shiny pants), pajamas, handbags, jewelry, scarves, shoes (athletic and formal), socks, stethoscope, eyeglasses, water bottle, binders blah blah blah. I'll buy ANYTHING (even something as mundane as a piece of felt) if I'm attracted to the shade of purple it features.
Naturally, I would really like a pair of purple skis. Pretty please.

To me, the woods are endlessly revitalizing -- in the spring, they offer up some of my favorite hiking trails; in the summer, they turn into a refreshing, cool refuge; in the fall, they become giant blankets of the most beautiful autumnal hues; and finally, in the winter, they accumulate the snow that's most fun and rewarding to ski through. As much as I love skiing, it's really hard to pick which version of the woods I like best...

I've never been one to wish for a trip into outer space -- I find the endless darkness and lack of gravity (and probably freezing temperatures) to be stifling prospects. The idea of space makes me feel so very small, but at the same time, I'm very much inspired by images of stars and galaxies. Their twinkling, indistinct outlines carry so much possibility.

I often feel blah about my wardrobe. I'm one of those people who buys an item of clothing and forgets about it if I don't wear it within 5 days of purchase. This puts me in an endless loop of lamenting my lack of fashionable clothes followed by some impulse purchases followed by temporary sartorial satisfaction. Emphasis on temporary.
The most recent of my misguided fashion finds was a cute black blazer liberally splattered with bright flowers. It's definitely THE most colorful staple I own now, and I quite honestly was scared to wear it at first. It's just so loud and borderline tacky! However, I've come to love it and have worn it multiple times and feel crazy enough about it to have churned out these skis.
