Cherokee Purple is my favorite. The weather hasn’t been great for them this year, but seriously, Tennessee has the best tomatoes I have ever eaten.  So many kinds.  So much deliciousness.

I can’t really guess how much these are manipulated, but these shots of Barcelona are INCREDIBLE!    Especially this fantastic shot from one of my favorite vantage points in the city on Montjuic.    I lost a good part of my morning to these pictures.  They are like perfect images of the fairytale Barcelona that exists in my head.  Or the Barcelona of The Shadow of the Wind.

The smocking on this dress is fantastic.  I doubt I’ll ever be that much of a seamstress. But wow, wouldn’t it be amazing to create something like that?

Emily on Poetry Daily.    Fantastic (both the poem and Emily).

Oddly enough I get a bunch of joy from this anti-drunk driving/speeding campaign: We’ll Be Everywhere, Man. Oh, Tennessee, never change.  (that link is the Windows version, click here for Quicktime.)
