young girls in flower

my clothes

For my new house, my proto-crypto-dreamhouse: linden-leaf tea, old linen towels, wool blankets, embroidered pillowcases. A madeleine pan. A bundt pan. White sheets. A basket to keep my knitting in, a bowl with blue flowers on it. A clothes rail (and hangers for my skirts). Bookshelves with all my books (I dreamt I went home for three days and could bring back all my books and things). And paper edging on the shelves. And two tables, one for my computer and writing, and one for sewing and drawing. My sewing machine. Sugar with lavender. A tea set. And friends to come around for tea, and one redheaded boy to draw pictures and laugh and listen to music with.
