Wordless Wednesday - Freezing in Slow Motion

Autumn Reading

Autumn is a comfortable chair indoors with a good reading lamp, a favorite shawl and a mug of tea nearby. I would prefer to be outside, but the weather is cooling down, and there are a lot of rainy days at this time of the year.

Reading at this time of the year is less fluffy, more history, archeology and science. The fondness for magical realism, quirky whodunnits and Belle Époque fantasy lingers, and I enjoy a good mystery, particularly when it is set in a faraway place. And cookbooks.

As in summer, reading choices often seem to make themselves, surfacing in my local library, book store bargain bins, village thrift shops, yard sales and the little free libraries that have sprung up everywhere.

Heartfelt thanks to the Muses for the kindred spirits who occasionally turn up at the door, hand me a bag of reading and ask hopefully if there is any tea in the pot. (There usually is).

Wise Words

We live in a sea of light.
Henry Plummer

The camera points both ways. In expressing the subject you also express yourself.
Freeman Petterson

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
Oscar Wilde

When we deliberately leave the safety of the shore of our lives, we surrender to a mystery beyond our intent.
Ann Linnea

It is in the words of carters and housewives, in the speech of blacksmiths and old women, that one discovers the magic that sings the claim of the voice in the shadow, or that chants the rhyme of the fish in the well.
John Maruskin
