this day :: carpe diem.
******
waking early.
pulling back the curtain.
greeting the morning light.
listening.
walking into this room.
pulling back the curtain.
greeting my mountain.
sitting on the deck.
waking my cells.
feeling and hearing the august winds.
savouring the warm ripe pungent smell of the forest.
seeing that first morning light through the trees of coyote hill.
washing the morning dishes.
boiling the chai.
boiling the chai.
sealing that commitment to healthier habits.
asking myself....what is it that you want, this day??

i wrote because i knew we were headed to the alaska state fair,
and many people go for the food. "fair food"....you know??
i know my body will thank me for bypassing the creme puffs
and the alaska ice cream and the reindeer hot dogs....
we savoured the homemade alaska veggie stew, enjoyed the
large glasses of rhubarb lemonade....

I brought a book home from the library called The Fully Raw Diet.
Beautiful pictures of recipes like "Awesomesauce burritos" (wrapped in collard leaves!) or "Stuffed Red Peppers with Avocado salsa."
I'm trying to eat healthy.
Ah. fair food. Corn dog please!!!
That, my friend, is my weakness.
If only I could smell the warm smell of the forest.
