A Walk In The Park

I woke up this morning to the sun shining brightly in the crisp frosty air. I opened up all the blinds and let it flow over me while I drank my coffee in the quiet. Glorious.

When Husband woke up we relaxed a bit and decided to head over to Lincoln Park to enjoy a brisk stroll in today's bounteous sunshine (He's working nights at the moment).

There's nothing like a new year and sunshine in Seattle to make you giddy with all the promise and possibilities of the future, make you thankful for today, and grateful for things past.

More sunshine and mountains coming your way. :)

The Great Gatsby

I cannot wait to see the latest take on Gatsby (yeah, we're close personal friends like that) in theaters! I have always loved Fitzgerald and the beautiful messes he so meaningly reveals in his novels. The glitz, glamour, and gloriously portrayed Weltschmerz of life seem to leap off every page and into the reader's imagination and heart. Fitzgerald is why I've always been obsessed with the 1920's or maybe the 1920's are why I've always been obsessed with Fitzgerald... Anyway, this is a movie I think everyone will want to see! Just watch the trailer and try not to be excited! There's no way they didn't go over budget on this one. The sets certainly appear pretty lavish so far, right? Let me know what you think. Also, do you think the casting is on the mark?

Kisses,

A Seriously Smitten K
