Nostalgia: every year is a gift
http://erin-eli.blogspot.com/2012/04/every-year-is-gift.html
Saturday, April 14, 2012. Every year is a gift. I had this thought a few months ago and tried to explain it to my Dad over the phone but he couldn't hear me very well. He asked me to write it down for him. I'm just now re-typing this scribbled note:. I've been assuming that we have this right to a "long" life - that is, 80 years or so. Everyone deserves that and anything shorter is an injustice; the person has been cheated. Why do I have this righteous attitude though? Every year of life is a gift.

Nostalgia: July 2011
http://erin-eli.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. A photo by Erin Eli. I got these Icelandic poppies at the farmers market at the Embarcadero. It's touristy as hell and way too crowded, but I like the produce and flowers there, so it's worth it. As long as I'm in and out in under an hour anyway. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Nostalgia: November 2010
http://erin-eli.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 26, 2010. Originally uploaded by Erin Eli. I'm at my parents' house in north county San Diego, loving my new Canon 30d. Digital is so practical, instant. I can learn from my mistakes because I can see them in front of me. This is Laurel on Fuji FP100c - shot by my Landcamera. Wednesday, November 3, 2010. Originally uploaded by Erin Eli. In love with this! Strange image from a roll of 120 shot on my Diana. Light leaks after exposure imprinted the numbers on the film, I think.

Nostalgia: May 2011
http://erin-eli.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 7, 2011. Years ago, my mom took a simple lemonade recipe (6 cups water, 1 cup lemon juice and 1 cup sugar) and made it perfect with one step: by taking one of the cups of water and melting the sugar into it, she creates simple syrup. Such an easy thing to do, and it improves the lemonade so much - no more gritty lemonade or endless stirring. It's my favorite! I usually double the batch, so measurements shown here are twice the amount the recipe calls for. Lemon towers are optional.

Nostalgia: we were there
http://erin-eli.blogspot.com/2011/10/we-were-there.html
Sunday, October 30, 2011. We were there in the house when he died. I was in the next room, frozen, eyes wide after hearing my brother Tim call for my parents. Early morning light was pouring through the shutters onto the couch I'd spent the past few nights on. I was surprised at the sharp feeling in my stomach, my racing heart. The buildup to that inevitable minute hadn't actually prepared me one bit, it seemed. November 1, 2011 at 9:55 AM. November 1, 2011 at 9:20 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
