writing poetry and fiction, abstract expressionist and surreal paintings, libraries, museums, astrology, vintage shops and bookstores, raspberry, peach, green, and black tea, sunshowers, lavender, vanilla, and sage candles, waking up early, finding shapes in clouds, the sky in the afternoon, newly cut spring grass, perfume, lip gloss, faeries, ponds, singing alone, beaded necklaces, meaningful conversations, handwritten letters, making new friends, learning about other cultures, nutrition, children's literature & other illustrated books, summer and spring at central park, meditation and dreaming
Maybe a cute blonde writer guy who drinks tea. Or possibly a cute blonde writer tea drinking guy who also plays the guitar and will serenade me in the early morning, is amused over small things, and likes adventures, but not insanely dangerous adventures.
