Pictures from break

Here are a few snapshots of my home. It's been so nice to be with my family!

Obligatory Starbucks picture....

snuck in a shot or two while Dad took portraits...

Banana bread with freshly grated nutmeg

Mom and I at borders...

My friend Hayley's goodbye party- she left for college last weekend.

Things I Love Right Now:

Mushrooms! I'm like a hobbit. Mushrooms are my favorite.
Asics running shoes. I'm trying to be a runner.
French manicures. They're so classy! But seriously, make me stop trying to do my own.
Wedgewood dishes. I got an eleven-piece assortment of matching vintage plates, bowls, and mugs the other day- in blue and white!- and ever since then I've wanted more.
Horse Noses. Must I explain, really? I especially miss them when I'm gone.
Cappuccinos. Ever since I discovered cappuccinos with meals, I can't help myself.

Books i'm Reading Now

Real Christianity, by William Wilberforce. His only book, a defense of the abolitionist movement; and a defense of real, radical, missional faith.
Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh. I might always be reading it, it's so good. I love anti-modernists.
How's Moving Castle. I know I maybe should branch out, since I've read this three times. But it's too funny.
Peter Pan, by James Barrie- it's so good! And not even a childrens' book.
Total Church- need to get my own copy, since I picked up Joey's copy in Holland and don't have my own!

Quotes I Love :-)

"I do not wish to call you my friend because I wish to call you something infinitely more dear. Marry me, dearest, lovliest friend."

"You may only call me Mrs. Darcy when you are perfectly, completely, and incandescantly happy."
~Elizabeth Darcy :-)

"I wonder who first discovered the power of poetry in driving away love?"
"But I thought that poetry was the food of love?"
"Oh, for a fine, stout love it may, but I am convinced that if it is only a vague inclination, one poor sonnet will kill it stone dead."
"Then what do you suggest to encourage affection?"
"Dancing. Even when one's partner is barely tolerable."
~Elizabeth Bennet

"I wrote a song that sounds like you, too. If Iris was a melody. I used only the good notes."
~The Holiday

"Where will be the value in life if we are not together?"
~ Becoming Jane

"You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you, and I never wish to be parted from you."
~Mmm, Mr. Darcy. :-)

"Oh, his voice. Like the sound of love, or the feeling of summer; impossible to put a word to and yet just as moving."
~Summer Winds
