 love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.?

    i find HDT quotes to be somewhat retarded. why? cuz i picture these philosphers to be freaks, like pervert freaks….so whilst enlightenment in the solitude of the forest, he probably did some other freaky sh*t there too….

    and on the subject of being comforted by the comfort of food…the dishwashing is quintessential terrible-ness.

    I think you get to understand more of yourself when you are totally alone. We are all learning to face loneliness in many different ways I guess…

    I love looking at your dishes!  You should also put up recipes along with your pictures…for people like me who are incompetent in the kitchen.  I cook all the time…only to have my hubby come poke at and inspect my food and then go make a sandwich for himself.  Hehe.
