books that i am (reluctantly) returning to the library:
1. the other way to listen
children’s book about what it means to really listen to the world. beautifully illustrated.

3. living in style: without losing your mind
i wish i could live by this title.
4. a field guide to sprawl
fascinating visuals of sprrrrraaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwl. and some interesting new lingo like boomburb, mall glut, pork chop lot, and snout house.
5. letters to a young poet
simple, real medidations. i’m halfway through. must. finish. why don’t we write letters like this anymore?

    Two things:
    1 – I love those books you’ve checked out!
    2 – So you’d recommend Dr. Bronner’s?

    yum! The cover of the sandwich book is making me really crave one, and it’s only 9:30am…
