today

....listening to Nina Simone singing My Father - the sheer beauty and sadness of it all; the pauses are exquisite, almost painful, to listen to.

....looking forward to Diana Henry's new book, due out in March.


....reading the very last bit of The Goldfinch. So very good. (But so very heavy!)


....getting excited about an up-coming trip - ooh la,la!


....being grateful for music, books and travel.
