cake and cup: February 2011
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
I've been quiet here lately, but I'm just enjoying life and working out some thoughts. The weather is slowly warming up and the days are becoming brighter. I've never been a fan of Valentine's Day, but I'm beginning to warm up to it. After all, between a husband who surprises me with flowers and my favorite dark mint chocolate and my two tiny valentines, what's not to love? Links to this post. Here's a great article. About the disease in general. And here's a wonderful one. Links to this post.

cake and cup: heart of writing
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011/10/heart-of-writing.html
Writing practice knows this, knows we are not our thoughts, but lets the thoughts, visions, emotions run through us and puts them on the page. Writing is the crack through which you can crawl into a bigger world, into your wild mind." -Natalie Goldberg. What sorts of treasures are you enjoying these days? This fabulous, cool, good-smelling weather is the BEST! Enjoy your walks with your littles before theyre old enough to zoom off ahead of you on their big bikes with their hair flowing out behind them.

cake and cup: in my mind's eye
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011/11/in-my-minds-eye.html
In my mind's eye. Blog: "Write your first draft with your heart. Rewrite with your head," from Finding Forrester. In my life, I strive to be in the moment, and to soak up the details around me, as they work like mental compost to eventually enrich my writing. Also, as cooler weather sets in, I start needing to bake. Thus the cookies begin to be a staple on my counter top. Soon it will be pies, and apple cake. What's your favorite fall treat?

cake and cup: a little break
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011/09/little-break.html
A break, a vacation, is just what a person needs sometimes. I took a vacation when my mom and brother flew in, and we went, with the kids, to the beach together. It was wonderful! I also took a break from any sort of writing, which felt good at first, but now I feel malnourished. The most exciting news of this week is Finn's third birthday, coming right up on Thursday. He has requested a strawberry cake, so I am on the hunt for the perfect recipe. Are you taking a little break from anything? I hope your ...

cake and cup: big news
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011/08/big-news.html
The summer days are slipping by. This morning the air was cooler, and a breeze flipped the leaves of the trees back and forth, waving hello. I have been busy learning a new city. Atlanta is not completely new to me, I spent twelve years of my life living just outside of Atlanta, in various suburbs. Living in the city, though, is different. It is still easy for me to get turned around as I try to find my way about town. Did I already express how much I love it here? Here is the big news as of late. I scop...

cake and cup: June 2011
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
I normally don't share writing from my journal, but this is an exception. My friend was senselessly murdered by strangers (and mere kids, at that) several years ago. It was in late summer, and so every year as the heat rises, so do memories of this friend. I can think only of him lately, so that's what I've been writing about, too. Links to this post. I can't quite believe it. I am looking forward to the change, and to living just one mile from my best friend; Jamie. What's growing rampantly in your life?

cake and cup: birthday
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2011/09/birthday.html
Finn turned 3 yesterday, complete with playing with friends all day, homemade pizza for dinner, and cookies and ice cream. It is a wonder that this little being whom I birthed not too long ago, is definitely on his way to becoming his own big person. He is independent and kind, and loves to read books and go on adventures. Here are a few shots from yesterday. Glad his birthday was a hit:) Poor Scott looks tired, though.:(.

cake and cup: September 2012
http://cakeandcup.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
It has been a really, really long time. I gave up here, stopped spending so much time on the computer (major plus), then eventually wanted to get back into blogging, started a new blog, gave up on that, and then over coffee this morning I browsed back through these old posts. I realized what a nice space I'd created here, a place of simple honesty and shared moments. And I wanted to come back. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
