who knew?

Not sure how I missed the news about this show, but I'm so glad my friend Ron Shapiro posted on his facebook page that Lucinda Williams will be playing Minglewood Hall in Memphis on Tuesday, February 24.  Thanks, Ron!   

As a songwriter, she is one of my most influential inspirations!  Car Wheels On A Gravel Road easily tops my list of favorite records!  I played it non-stop for at least two years and still haven't grown tired of it.  Her latest album, Little Honey, is no disappointment!  Simply stated for all the kids out there...it rocks!  As a matter of fact, I think I'll take a Sunday drive with it today and enjoy the Mississippi sunshine! 

peace & love

This is a print by artist J. B. Louie.  My friend, Betsy, gave me one of her prints as a birthday gift, and I adore it.  You can check out her work at browningtonforest.etsy.com.  I'll leave you with this beautiful Irish blessing that is on my print...

may you have warm words on a cold evening, a full moon on a dark night and a smooth road all way to your door

I've just finished perusing the February '09 Anthropologie catalog.  It's all lovely, but I have a soft spot for all things Frye...so turn quickly to page 33 (top left). There's just something about the rugged elegance of their shoes.  Anthro shows it in navy which is my personal favorite, but I couldn't resist showing it in "grass".  It comes in 5 other colors.  Spring can't get here soon enough!
