Poem For The Weekend #61

http://www.frauleinlouise.com/2017/01/08/poem-for-the-weekend-61

Poem For The Weekend #61. You give me flowers resembling Chinese lanterns. For yellow. You give me. You give me lemons softened in brine and you give me cuttlefish ink. You give me all 463 stairs of Brunelleschi’s dome. You give me seduction and you let me give it back to you. You give me an apartment full of morning smells toasted bagel and black. Coffee and the freckled lilies in the vase on the windowsill. You give me 24-across. You give me flowers resembling moths’ wings. With their feet on the chairs.

London

Back in August (where has this year gone? Hours in London with our beloved Washingtonians – friends turned family – and boy, did we pack those hours to the brim. To begin: Green Park, boughs kissing above the walkways, a violinist plucking notes from the gloom. Buckingham Palace (munching our sandwiches on the fountain – why yes, we did eat lunch with Her Majesty! Glum faces as departure neared…. One last photograph of all of us, together. Photos) on film, digital and iPhone by me and Ashley. No, just me?

A City Of Shifting Light

http://www.frauleinlouise.com/2016/08/01/a-city-of-shifting-light

A City Of Shifting Light. It is pouring in London this evening, a hard cold wind smashes the raindrops against the roof. If I believed in signs, I’d say it were a sign I should up sticks and move to Edinburgh drizzly, saturate, inclement Edinburgh, a city shaped by chill winds from the East. 8220;A city of shifting light, of changing skies, of sudden vistas. A city so beautiful it breaks the heart again and again.” (*Alexander McCall Smith). Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window). Thank yo...

Women’s March, London 21.01.2017. Illustration via jointheuproar.com. I march for the forgotten, for the great women behind all the great men, for the women who have died alone or uncommemorated. I march for all of the women who have raised children on their own. I march for all the little girls and young women coming of age in the era of Donald Trump, who believe they can never be President, or fly to the moon, or write books as well as men can, or save lives, or do whatever it is they aspire to. I marc...

The Best Holiday Reads. In honour of an upcoming thirteen-hour plane ride, I thought I’d share a selection of my favourite holiday reads – books that are inherently readable, engaging without being overly weighty, marked by characters you fall in love with. Please share your favourites with me so I can race to the library/bookshop before my flight to Singapore later this week! ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE, Anthony Doerr. AMERICAN WIFE, Curtis Sittenfeld. BROOKLYN, Colm Toibin. SOMEONE, Alice McDermott.

Let’s-Pretend-It’s-Still-Summer Quiche. We ate our slices warm, on plates balanced on our knees in front of the Great British Bake-Off Final and it did not disappoint (both the quiche and the bake-off’s last hurrah.) The only thing better than watching people making pastry is eating it yourself, right? To quiches and Nadiya. To misquote Ms Hussain, you can make this quiche and (I sincerely hope) you will. 8211; 1 roll of shortcrust (or, if you are more patient than I, feel free to make your own). Combine...

Beauty & Style. January 5, 2017. March 4, 2017. Too, it sounds so much more definite than resolutions, and somehow more achievable that way. A few of my intentions for the year ahead include:-. Make and Create –. Cook more, bake more, sew more, crochet more – keep working on the little creative outlets I enjoy. Eat well and balanced –. And finally cut out dairy again (Sadly I cannot ignore my lactose intolerance forever! Balance my time –. What are your plans for the year ahead? You might also like.
