Avocado and Jalapeño Grilled Cheese Sandwich

A delicious vegan sandwich with sliced jalapeños and vegan cheese

You may not have all the ingredients on-hand, but once you do, you can delight in the simple steps to make this delicious vegan sandwich over and over again. Tender slices of peppered Tofurkey with avocado and melted Daiya Havarti Garlic Jalapeño cheese. To top it off I used thick cut slices of artisan rosemary herbed bread.

52 Photographs: Lavender

I'm stuck with severely anemic gardening skills, but somehow a little patch of lavender has emerged in my yard in spite of myself. Alice Hoffman says in her novel, Practical Magic, that we should plant lavender for good luck and to fall in love whenever we can. I think a little bit of both is due today.

52 Photographs: The Rose

What do I have in common with Martha Stewart? Well, not as much as I'd like. But I do have this pink rose bush thriving by the side of my house. I take it as a hopeful sign that the green thumb emerging on my hand may not be gangrene.

Letting the Dust Settle

A photograph on Namely Marly of settling dust dancing in the early morning light.

The sweet fragrance of honeysuckle in the air lulled me into a temporary state of cleaning insanity. I started with the blinds in the bedroom and quickly became distracted by illuminated dancing dust in the early morning light. After a few sneezes I decided to take a photo. Picasso has a quote about the dust of our lives and it leads me to think that even cleaning the blinds can somehow be an adventure in art.

Another Sky

A morning stroll through an October garden provided the inspiration. Emily Dickinson provided the poetry. The two combined make a wonderful way to start out the week.
