Your blog is so refreshing.
You have rekindled my interest in visiting the wonderful antique fairs here down south, rather aptly there's one here tomorrow. Thanks Corey

Aaah yes....only you can take our everyday rituals and make poetry from them. It is such a gift, dear Cor-ay...a lovely gift we are blessed to have you share with all of us.
Your post made me smile and sigh. Such loveliness abounds here at your blog that I will have to visit often. Thank you kindly for your comments and visiting my blog.
You, dearest Corey, have become a part of my daily ritual. I am so glad you are expanding your writing venue... makes more to pick from when you write that book!
i recognize the scene in the shopping center... i have a son with a similar enthusiasm for new things. and like you, i think... he wasn't supposed to turn out that way. the ritual piece was so vivid for me... especially the rosewater and ironing. thank you for your beautiful visions.

That was such a beautiful poem. I'm going to print it and post it in my kitchen to remind me of those things everyday.
Your poem makes me want to clean my house and iron my clothes for some reason. Your home must be scrumptious :)

Gorgeous. Just gorgeous.
I especially like the part about white towels and a steamed up mirror. My favorite ritual is splashing around in water!
So, so pretty, Corey!

I must get some of that rosewater!!! Love your rituals and the way your writing soothes the wrinkles out of the everydayness... and makes it special.
