Opening Wikipedia and seeing that the featured article was on Tolkien. And then having friends to share this fact with!

Finally contacting a friend from your early childhood after a few years silence...

I assign this thread to the Shire; reading it has improved my mood dramatically.
I also assign to the Shire: Curly, crunchy red fall leaves scattered over a wet sidewalk that reflects bare branches against an overcast sky. The conjunction of rich, strong coffee, Kate Bush, Borges and DSL. My two year old when she hugged me and said "that's my mommy!" Feta cheese, parmesan cheese, brie, provalone, fresh mozzerella, extra sharp smoked cheddar; oh, just, cheese in general. Pesto sauce, warm crusty sourdough bread right out of the oven, grapes picked from my own vines, matar paneer, rice noodles with peanut sauce, macaroons, baklava, tiramisu, peaches, chai, real homemade linguini...etc. The smell of garden soil when you first dig into it in the springtime. The scent of star magnolias. The color of the sky just after sunset, when it's the most saturated, glowing sapphire blue. Russian sage, lilacs, violets, lamb's ears, lavender, phlox, virginia creeper, thyme, roses, peonies, allium, physostegia... Warm, comfy slippers that don't look silly or fall off. Knowing I'm leaving in 50 days (plane tickets - $516. Travelcard - $25. Finally seeing London - preciousss!) The tiny red bugs that live in books; raccoons; white deer; wild geese. The moment when the whole semester's work is finished ... Sorry for being so long-winded. Once you get going, it's hard to stop. Last edited by Rikae; 11-18-2006 at 07:51 PM. Reason: silly Rikae misspelled 'raccoons'! |

I assign Rikae to the Shire for this heart-lifting post.
