My recent world is warm. Skirt-warm, bare-my-bruised-knees-warm (they are bruised from the awkward ways I sit against furniture when my mind is in other places), iced-tea-warm, peppermint-bodywash-warm, constant-fan-warm.
My recent world is also rich with postcolonial feminist theory (which brings together so many of my concerns about ethics, women, responsibility) and postcolonial women writers (Jean Rhys! Anita Desai! Nadine Gordimer!). I'm learning ridiculous amounts of important stuff.
Also, in the gaps between the warm and the poco/fem, I've been rather fond of cut-up nectarines and vanilla ice cream. And yesterday (proof of humanity and love for my husband who doesn't cook much!) I made turkey burgers with baby swiss cheese and barbeque sauce, corn on the cob, and (leftover) sesame cole slaw. Yum

An old toothless, bearded, hag selling chrysanthemums once told me, "Take lots and lots of snaps. Some of them will be good."
Life is good,
