"Double bag, drop of half and half, and three splenda." -?


Who can tell me where this quote is coming from? I'm looking to L.Rauch, C.Busa, and the like for this one.

Today, Lizz and Sean and Michael Francis are going to this:

Gas Works Park, in South Wallingford, reflects this area’s eclectic regard for the environment. Overlooking Lake Union, the 19-acre park is home to a former
gas manufacturing plant that was closed down in 1956. The old compressor building and adjoining chimneys have been preserved as part of the recreational area. There is a children’s park area, as well as a kite-flying hill on site.


Kimberly is staying home to work on her music career.


There is a lot more to fill you in on. Well, not that much. Seattle is pretty low key.

Fall is coming. The weather here is very autumnal. It has us talking about pumpkin pie and jack-o-lanterns. Not to mention, a sadder Halloween without all of you in your well-planned, silly, witty, and cleaver costumes. Make us proud. (especially you, friendie)

Hey, leave your address for a postcard!

For now, I leave you with this Thoreau quote in the book Sean and I are currently reading, Into The Wild,

If the day and the night are such that you greet them with joy, and life emits a fragrence like flowers and sweet-scented herbs, is more elastic, more starry, more immortal, -- that is your success.

The greatest gains and values are farthest from being appreciated. We easily come to doubt if they exist. We soon forget them. They are the highest reality. . . . The true harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning or evening. It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched.


love love love.

I like those quotes! I like quotes.
Do you know my address, ess? it's the same one as the one on your license. I got my new 21 year old hot mama license the other day.

you're all peaceful happy people so you might like this overly happy peaceful poem. I was going to quote one stanza of it but then the entire thing felt applicable!
