OH DEAR GOD I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. SO MUCH SO MUCH SO MUCH.

It was everything Kelsium said it would be and more. So much more, she typed from her deathbed.

That was awesome. I loved the end.

Two Figures by a Fountain, from Atonement; composed by Dario Marianelli.

Marianelli’s film scores are beautiful; this much I have known for a few years now. The music from - to name just a few - Atonement and V for Vendetta and Pride & Prejudice is gorgeous: lush and inventive and compelling, somehow.

BUT. It was only today that I found out that Marianelli - can I call you Dario, love? - Dario himself is beautiful. See:

The late Jerry Orbach might be best remembered for roles such as tough New York detective Lennie Briscoe on “Law & Order” or the man who tries to put Baby in a corner in Dirty Dancing, but who knew that he was such a romantic?

Over the course of their 25-year relationship, Jerry wrote love poems to his wife Elaine. Now they’re compiled in ‘Remember How I Love You: Love Letters From an Extraordinary Marriage.’

Jerry would leave the short-but-sweet notes next to her coffee cup so that she’d have a “good morning poem” when she woke up.

Detail of an illustration of a solar barge on page 55 of Carl Jung’s The Red Book. Translated, the complete text on the page reads: “One word that was never spoken. / One light that was never lit up. / An unparalleled confusion. / And a road without end.”

For Rosa.

Losing your job sucks. Losing it like that, sucks even more. I’m glad you have some income coming up to January at least and that you have some people on your side there.

Here’s to a new (and better) job!

At the gas station over lunch. Amish horses amaze me. Four or five vehicles drove by this buggy as it was parked and the horse just shook its head a bit.

lindaboucher:

I am taking part in this exhibition on Sunday.

The idea is that 100 Artists exhibit for an evening… all the works of art will be for sale, and a percentage of the sale price goes to The Sussex Beacon.

The Beacon started life in 1992 as a hospice- but now has expanded in to a true Beacon in our little community down here on the south coast…. Their aim being to empower people living with HIV/AIDS.

I know that over the years it has helped, supported and comforted (too) many of my friends, and I love them for it.

So, I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help the Beacon, but I’m also PSYCHED that I’m going to hang out with 99 Artists for an evening!

Everyone’s welcome…. so book your flights now, international tumblrs of the world :)

pdvmorris:

How the chimney-sweeper’s cry
Every blackening church appals,
And the hapless soldier’s sigh
Runs in blood down palace-walls.

But most, through midnight streets I hear
How the youthful harlot’s curse
Blasts the new-born infant’s tear,
And blights with plagues the marriage-hearse. ~ William Blake

Make It: Squash Angel Hair with Greens, Pine Nuts, and Golden Raisins

Have you guys heard? Spaghetti squash as a pasta replacement is all the rage. And for good reason! Spaghetti squash has about 40 calories per cup (compared to pasta’s 200ish), and also delivers some vital nutrients like fiber, calcium, and vitamins A, C, and E. It has a neutral taste and a slightly crunchy texture, so you can really do just about anything to it. Here’s one idea, but feel free to experiment! This recipe was inspired by reader Erika, who gave me some vegan recipes for Vegan Week.

You’ll need (for about six healthy servings):

2 medium spaghetti squashes

4-5 cups spinach or baby spinach

1 large onion, chopped

1/2 bunch kale

1/2 cup pine nuts

1/2 cup golden raisins (you could also use regular)

1/4 cup vegetable stock

1/2 t nutmeg

1 T olive oil

salt & pepper to taste

parmesan to taste (if desired. To make this dish vegan, just eliminate the parm!)

Preparation:

Cut squashes in half and roast cut side-up for about 50-60 minutes at 375, or until the spaghetti strands can be loosened with a fork.

When the squash has about 15 minutes left, saute the onion in olive oil for a few minutes with some salt and pepper until it starts to get translucent.

Add vegetable stock, spinach, kale, and nutmeg. You can also add some more s&p.

When the vegetables start to cook down, add pine nuts and raisins.

Saute everything together for another 5-10 minutes.

When the squash is done, scoop out the strands.

Mix the veggies into the “spaghetti.”

Top with parm (or don’t, if you’re vegan) and enjoy!

Yum!
