I am working on offering gift wrapping through the website but I haven't quite nailed it down yet. It will definitely be simple with a handmade feel. The sprig of rosemary could be cute for the holidays. 

a wish

beautiful country lawn

I love city life but my biggest wish is to have our little apartment here in the city and some land upstate one day. This lawn is gorgeous.

As a young 20 something in NYC, I was completely smitten with Edna St. Vincent Millay and her poetry. I loved her fiery sonnets about independence and she made me feel like the strongest girl in the whole wide world. Admittedly, I still stalk her former home when I'm in Greenwich Village. It's the narrowest home in New York City by the way and just sold for 3.25 million!
I Shall Forget You Presently, My Dear
I shall forget you presently, my dear,
So make the most of this, your little day,
Your little month, your little half a year,
Ere I forget, or die, or move away,
And we are done forever; by and by
I shall forget you, as I said, but now,
If you entreat me with your loveliest lie
I will protest you with my favorite vow.
I would indeed that love were longer-lived,
And vows were not so brittle as they are,
But so it is, and nature has contrived
To struggle on without a break thus far,
Whether or not we find what we are seeking
Is idle, biologically speaking.

I'm currently having a plant explosion in my small apartment. I guess I'm anticipating a long winter and looking for ways to brighten up our home. This is currently my new favorite plant, Protasparagus densiflorus a.k.a. asparagus fern. It's so wispy, feathery and cute and loves almost no light.
