I've had a difficult time solving the "Time + Photos = Blogging" equation this week. Indeed, this photo was taken two mornings ago as a windy front blew through. This morning a heavy frost coats my world.
I'm waiting this moment for my eldest to holler at me to help load the car as she heads down the mountain to college. She went Columbia earlier in the week, but returned home for a day or two to collect a couple of vital items--her cello and a teapot. USC has some funky rules about who is allowed to play in their orchestra (only music majors and minors) so she is going to bite the bullet and declare music as her minor. She has also developed a newly acquired taste for tea, particularly chai. So I polished an old tea kettle, threw in a couple of matching mugs, a pot holder and tea bags into a box for her. She may not be a rich college student, but hopefully as she sips her tea while studying this semester she will feel more civilized.
