We Share The Stars

Last night I lay outside with two dear friends; we shared blankets and stared up at the stars. The night was clear and our minds active as our thoughts and conversation chased from politics, faith, astronomy, music and through other interests. I watched three falling stars shoot through the sky, but I didn't waste a moment on wishes--it was the sort of moment that made wishes moot.
Today I am relaxing at my parents house. I've ripped apart old pancakes to feed to the birds and snacked on homemade food from Amish country. In a couple of weeks my parents will be moving again, all the way across the country and our brief year where our paths overlapped will be over. These weekends together and my ability to mooch off of them will end.theclotheshorse, the clothes horse, personal, style, fashion, outside, spring, summer, daylight, redhead, button skirt, leaf bag, beaded, bag, pursetheclotheshorse, the clothes horse, personal, style, fashion, outside, spring, summer, daylight, redhead, button skirt, leaf bag, beaded, bag, pursetheclotheshorse, the clothes horse, personal, style, fashion, outside, spring, summer, daylight, redhead, button skirt, leaf bag, beaded, bag, pursetheclotheshorse, the clothes horse, personal, style, fashion, outside, spring, summer, daylight, redhead, button skirt, leaf bag, beaded, bag, purse

I would like to look at the stars, but living in the middle of the city I can't see too many of them.

Dennis likes the leaf bag. A fish motif would be nice on a bag too. Dennis is sad that your parents are going so far away.

Gerat skirt. I just can't get over that leaf bag. It's pretty cool.

Pratishtha Durga said...

Hey! Do I detect a hint of sadness in the post? I am sure that even with your parents moving, you will get ample opportunities to "mooch off of them".

My parents are coming on a nice, long visit to Mumbai next month and of course, I am really looking forward to that.

I am just going to repeat what everyone has said, the bag is awesome. Hope you had a beautiful weekend :)

one of my favorites yet!

You once said in an earlier blog entry that you wished to be more whimsical in dressing with flourishing little details - well, this is one such delightfully whimsical outfit!

I love the leaf purse, and the wonderful swirl of (not often combined) color.
