my week in objects (mostly.)

stubby birthday candles, house-guest lilies, and a stoop-found corkboard.

1. these birthday candles.

{but mostly james.}

2. this hard-necked garlic.

{and the roughly four other heads consumed this week.}

3. these faces.

{it’s been at least 35 years with these critters now and i’ll never tire of them.}

4. these dinner-guest lilies.

{but especially the dinner guest.}

5. this found corkboard.

{and a percolating project.}

other things:

fruits of labor.

marigold!

well then it’s everything. a talisman.

gradients of blue.

come for the theme song; stay for the convo.

the answer is plastic. and, underneath that, the answer is oil and gas.
