I Love Pictory

I recently read about Pictory on my friend Doug's facebook page. He edited the most recent feature called The One Who Got Away--short stories about you guessed it, lost loves who got away, accompanied by great photographs. I love that feature, but there's also a great one about home, specifically people's childhood homes, which you can read here. Just thought I'd share it with you since I'm so crazy about Pictory lately. They also have features on food and growing older in the archives.

A Garden

I think we've found a place! I should probably wait to mention it when it's official, but it's almost official, so I thought I could at least mention part of it, and that is . . . it has a garden! The little place we might be getting has a back patio garden.  It's more patio than garden, but it's a beautiful outdoor space. Any outdoor space would make me happy after living without one for the last 4 years. Of course I'll post pictures of the little back garden if it becomes ours, but in the meantime, flickr images, like the one above, are making me feel inspired and giving me lots of fun ideas.
