cravings

Lately I've been craving fruit and vegetables but I suspect it's mostly for aesthetic reasons. The other day I planned out some great healthy meals. (That's a big step for me to plan the meal and follow through by buying the ingredients too.) After I arrived home from the grocery store I took a large square-shaped shallow white basket from my craft stash. Into it I placed bananas, limes, tangelos, oranges, cherry tomatoes, an avocado, lemons and next to it sits this bowl of cherries. It's all so lovely to look at that I keep replentishing it just to prolong the enjoyment. Plus, now I’m eating my fruit and veggies and I have an incentive to keep the kitchen counters clean and neat.

I have a confession to make. My studio is a big dirty, have-to-step-around-piles mess. Why am I telling you this? I need some accountability, my friends. When I come back here tomorrow I plan on having a clean room. As soon as I save this post I'm going to take some before photos, clean like mad and tomorrow I will post both the before & after shots. *sigh* I have to go now… talk to you tomorrow.
