Yellow is SPRINGing up all over Savannah.



Even in our little sidewalk plantings …





One of our favorite breakfast spots here in Savannah is Le Café Gourmet, a small but very-big-on-flavor spot tucked away on Victory Drive that victoriously specializes in French pastries and sandwiches.


We love chatting with owner Helen and playing with the café’s mascot, Theo.
And best of all, Le Café Gourmet oozes with welcome and goodwill.
Which makes the little, low placard below the coffee bar so very appropriate.


Especially in today’s divided and difficult world.
At my age, I may no longer be able to be anything, but with just a little effort, I know I can be … KIND.


Ocean Vuong On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous
I love this quotation from Vietnamese author Ocean Vuong (isn’t that a great name?) in his fascinating and time-denying novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous.
He’s right—memory certainly is a choice. I have brothers, and our memories of past events are quite often barely recognizable. And, of course, we sometimes simply choose not to remember certain aspects of the past.


“The world in which you were born is just one model of reality. Other cultures are not failed attempts at being you: they are unique manifestations of the human spirit.” — Wade Davis

“There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.“


Light … come on in!
A blog category featuring meaningful (at least to me) quotations.

A lovely and aspirational truth.
