remembering

i just arrived back home in brooklyn. it is nice to be back. took a little walk and noticed all the amazing blooms-dogwoods in white and pink, cherry blossoms, lilac bushes, tulips, and so many more.

i am trying to remember the good times with my grandmother. she was not your typical grandmother, she was a real spit fire and one hell of a flirt. when she was younger she wore her hair in a big blond bouffant and always wore heels. i remember driving to her house in chicago as a child. the one thing i remember most is her big cushy pink toilet seat. and how she would always make cabbage borscht. no matter what, we had to have that borscht. she made it really sweet and it was delicious. i don't think she really knew how to cook much else, so we always looked forward to it. she is probably somewhere making a batch now, or flirting with some young fellas.

i am also slowly going through the photos i took for my friend's wedding. it was really beautiful. i will be adding a few more to flickr soon, so check them out.
