cook me up some long string beans

lovely

having nothing to do but clip away at paper

the groove required to bake all bread ever eaten in the house

jude’s funny loaves of bread he rolls and mistreats before baking

sleeping babes in the bed with us by morning

entire days spent with friends, coffee, little work

henry singing along with musician friends in the neighborhood

“cold, cold water from the bottom of the well”

lola, of course

evol

cool guy who made evol

tolerable

gum in the mouths of small children

being reminded it’s still winter after all

lone phrases from songs that stick in the head (as in, “big blonde, and beautiful.” why?)

emaciated and airbrushed starlets in scraps of expensive fabric

repeated requests for food (from children, not from emaciated starlets)
