The Nanjing Particles

CLICK HERE TO READ ABOUT THIS STRANGE, BEAUTIFUL, UNUSUAL WORK BY SIMON STARLING! HOW ODD - THE ROOM WAS EMPTY ON THE MONDAY WE WERE THERE. THIS ROOM IS AS LONG AS A FOOTBALL FIELD.

The Walls - Not the Art

I LOVE THE WALLS OF MASS MOCA . . . SO MANY GHOSTS.



I'LL SHOW YOU A BIT OF THE ART TOMORROW.

Monday at MASS MoCA

S. AND I MET AT THE CLARK IN WILLIAMSTOWN AND SAW A GREAT SHOW: DOVE/O'KEEFE. I ADORED IT, SO LOVELY. THEN . . . 15 MINUTE DRIVE TO MASS MOCA.

FIRST STOP, PIT STOP. CALL ME CRAZY, BUT THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SPACES IN THE MUSEUM: THE WOMEN'S REST ROOM IN THE BASEMENT!

IF I EVER HAVE A HOUSE BIG ENOUGH, I WANT A SINK JUST LIKE THIS ONE.

THEN OUT THE DOOR . . .
MORE MOCA TO COME.

My Little Prize

MY LITTLE BRIMFIELD PRIZE: AN INDIAN SHELF WITH MIRROR. IT'S FUNKY AND WOBBLY, BUT MY DAD'S LITTLE IVORY BUDDHAS FROM JAPAN SEEM TO FIND IT A PROPER HOME.

THAT'S IT FOR THE BRIMFIELD REPORT!

A Peek at the Creepy Side of Brimfield

THESE CERAMIC GLOVE MOULDS LOOK PARTICULARLY DISTURBING AS A LARGE COLLECTION.

WOULD YOU WANT THIS GIRL IN YOUR GARDEN?!

More Brimfield Buddhas

SWEET LITTLE BUDDHA IN THE GRASS . . .

6-FOOT BUDDHA AMONGST JUNK . . .

HUGE, GORGEOUS BUDDHA HEAD WITH JUNK & SANTA CLAUS!

Brimfield Buddhafields

IT SEEMS BRIMFIELD HAS MORE BUDDHAS THAN YOU CAN SHAKE A STICK AT!

Quick Summer Meal: Black Bean & Corn Salad

THIS IS MY SLIGHTLY REVISED VERSION OF A RACHEL RAY RECIPE I FOUND ONLINE.
I MADE HER SALAD, BUT USED TWO ROASTED RED PEPPERS INSTEAD OF ONE RAW ONE, AND LESS RED ONION. (THE RED ONIONS AT WHOLE FOODS ARE GIGANTIC!) I ADDED LOTS OF CHOPPED CILANTRO, AND SERVED IT OVER A SPINACH, CUCUMBER & SUNFLOWER GREENS SALAD. EASY, FAST AND DELICIOUS!

The Simplest Summer Breakfast

HOMEMADE YOGURT AND A PEELED GEORGIA PEACH, TOPPED WITH A SMIDGE OF MAPLE SYRUP. WHO COULD ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE?
LOCAL PEACHES FROM CLARKDALE FRUIT FARMS WILL BE READY AUGUST 1!

Where the Heck is the . . . ?

Friday at The Harp

AT THE END OF A SUMMER WEEK . . .
