there was a beautiful little slipper of a moon outside this evening.
i made a delicious lasagna from one of giada's cookbooks.
asparagus lasagna!
and cookies for dessert.
by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)
coming home from chanda's violin lesson, we saw the moon as we were crossing 7th avenue. it was a beautiful silver slipper of a moon.
tuesdays are turning out to be our ice skating day. we traveled to bryant park again today to meet with friends and skate. the weather was beautiful . . sunny and just cool enough to be comfortable, though the ice was a bit wet. i guess we could use colder weather for the ice!
next week is chanda's birthday and we're having it at the ice rink here. i decided to make it early so as to miss some of the school groups that come in around 11 am. i hope everyone doesn't mind getting up so early! it is nice being there before the major crowds come in.
tomorrow morning, morgana, chanda and i are taking advantage of the daylight savings time. we need to get up at 5:30 and leave at 6:30 am to be at a school for a beliloveable performance. they are dancing at the brearley school's 8 am assembly. the brearley school is located between east end avenue and FDR drive. that's a good five long blocks from the lexington avenue subway. it shall be quite an invigorating walk . . i wonder what the wind is like over there by the east river . . if it's anything like the hudson, it can be cold.
