I just found this site and it is just what I need in my life, inspiration to be kind.. I love California, Especially San Francisco, East Lansing in the fall, Baja Mexico and eating fish tacos at little roadside stands with fresh lime and pico,laying in bed with my boyfriend and son talking about nothing, my parents dining room table when everyone or anyone is there to chat, table six at Arts Bar with all of my friends making me crack up,the Peanut Barrel on a fall evening when the wind is just getting going and Van Morrison is playing,I love any Asian food store where I can browse for hours at all the yummy, crazy foods, I love the paint display stands at stores, the colors are so amazing and inspiring to me.How fun, can not wait for next assignment..

I just found your site and am adoring every bit of it. So glad that you're spreading the nice.
My favorite places are snuggled up next to my son on the bed, near any body of water so that I can just sit and listen, with my besties sipping on tea or a martini, Boston, Seattle, NYC, Paris and all of Norway.

2009-11-04T08:36:10.648-08:00

I love... Chicago when it's snowing - my Granny's house on the Maryland Eastern Shore - the California coast when I'm looking for shells on the beach - Antique shops in Pennsylvania - Bars in Dublin - My bed with my kitties - My kitchen baking cookies on a snow day - Sequioa National Park when I'm picnicing with my family - and dive bars when I'm watching college football with my friends. :)

You are coming to Arizona!? Where abouts? I'm in Tucson, the weather is great.

2009-11-03T16:24:17.545-08:00

I love...
Midland because the streets are so wide and the sky is so high. I love the hammock behind my parents' house, my in-laws' garden, and Waterfire in downtown Providence.
I like the 6 hours between Austin and Midland, and the 30 minutes between Vilnius and Utena.
I like the walk between Rue du Regard and Rue de Turenne.

hi - i just found your blog, and i will for sure play along! i love my bed - cuddling in the middle of the day in bed with my husband because we both happen to have nowhere to be at the same time. i love my parents kitchen - visiting my parents, and waking up early to sit in their beautiful kitchen with a mug of coffee and the newspaper and catch up with them before anyone else gets up. i love my neigborhood - taking walks when all the leaves are gold & orange & fiery red. i love my grocery store - picking out all the things we're going to eat for the week. i love really authentic and adorable cafes - sitting in them and journaling or reading and feeling just perfect. i love staples - looking through the pens, notebook and agendas just makes me feel happy. i love bookstores - especially for the journals and the cookbooks (chapters for journals, book warehouse for cookbooks)... it's still early, so that's all i can think of now :) oh, and i also love waking up early and sitting on my couch with coffee & all the new blogs to read :)

Oooh! I LOVE all of your LOVES!

I forgot about Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco. Those peanut butter and hot fudge sundaes are incredible!

2009-11-03T06:23:50.810-08:00

I love the beach on the north shore of Oahu in the summer. I love my screened in back porch on a warm fall day. I love the edge of the Grand Canyon. I love my mom's house on a random day. I love the Four Seasons in Chicago near Christmas time. I love the Japanese Gardens at the Missouri Botanical Garden. I love my bathtub from my apt in Portland in college.

2009-11-02T17:49:54.804-08:00

I love this assignment! I have to agree with Zomb1etron~ my bed is probably my MOST favorite place no matter what time of day, the weather or who is in it! ;-)

But after that, a pâtisserie in Paris, any bookstore, my parents sofa hanging out with them, court side at a basketball game, on the beach before and after a rain, anywhere in Kona, Hawaii, an antique store~ where you can smell the mustiness of it all, driving near a park after the grounds crew has just cut the grass, and making it full circle....

as I go to bed the night before a big trip!

2009-11-02T17:42:50.487-08:00

Great costume! And are we on the same wavelength?! Today, I began my creative flow by making my list of favorites...it's not as simple as it was when I was a kid.

But favorite places, visited and unvisited, definitely were easy enough:
*Dolores Park, San Francisco
*California Academy of Science (Steinhart Aquarium) SF
*Park Slope, Brooklyn (All of it!)
*Moss Beach, North of Half Moon Bay, CA
*Clifden, Ireland
*Dublin, Ireland
*7th and Irving, SF
*Washington DC
*Thump Coffee, Bend, OR
*Our family bed every night, every morning!

2009-11-02T16:24:12.131-08:00

I love my ever understanding hubby, my furbabies, Venice, Italy at night after the day tourist are gone, museums, finding that "it" item at a thrift store or online (go ebay!!), making noise (a core competance), being debt-free, looking forward to a journey and digging all the tedious details, being myself.

Thanks for the assignment Melissa--you go girl!

I love...my bed, especially when it's raining in the afternoon. Strangely enough, I love my office. The section of the museum with all the stuffed animals. My brother's house on the weekends. The second and third floors of Borders bookstore. Sewing on my balcony. And the giant second-hand store with aisles made of cupboards.

2009-11-02T13:57:00.545-08:00

I love snuggling in bed with my hubby. - The library. - The aisles of Goodwill. - Any bookstore. - A kitchen where some good soul food is cooking. - Anywhere with a fireplace. - On the beach in the early am when no one else is out yet. - The mountains when the leaves have all changed colors. - Starbucks with someone special for good convo purposes. - And anywhere I feel comfortable. :)
