Je Chuchote Votre Nom

I loved this statue in the Jardin du Luxembourg.  It was so evocative to me, I just kept thinking about what on earth the sculptor was trying to say, and came up with a million different answers and interpretations, which made me know that it was a good statue.  The woman could be asking for anything- life, love, a helping hand... it doesn't really matter.  I imagined the response to come out in a whisper.  Je chuchote votre nom, I whisper your name.

Window to the Soul

So this isn't really a window to the soul.... but it is a pretty window!  And ny soul wishes that it were a window on my building.  I was just strolling through Bed-Stuy one day when I saw this- the entire building was rather lovely, but this window, with the crisp white box full of flowers, and swirly heart-shaped iron work caught my eye.  I'm jealous of whoever lives here.  They have nice taste in windows.

So in Love

Strange dear, but true dear
When I'm close to you dear
The stars fill the sky
So in love with you am I

This has to have been one of my favourite centerpieces of all time.  It's from my boyfriend Danny's mother's wedding a month ago.  On ever table, there was a white rose, surrounded by smooth river stones and three pure white candles.  Once the lights were dimmed for the dancing to begin, the centre of each table lit up with beauty.  I loved it, and I hope that you do too!

Did this make you want to sing a little old love tune?  Take a look at To Die, To Sleep, and read yourself a little love sonnet.

Lovebirds

Two pigeons sharing an intimate moment, caught on film by moi.
I guess it really is the city of love!
