Take a breather, won't you?

My sweets, how goes your week? Mine has been super busy as I've been running around tying up loose ends...I'm exhausted and would like nothing better than to sink into a nice cozy corner.....

I wouldn't mind lifting that lamp off the floor and settling in with a good book. Add to the picture:  warm socks, a cuddly throw, an ottoman to prop those tired feet up, adrak chai and a good book. I'm currently reading this (or trying to, LOL!!--progress is S-L-O-W). What about you?

  4. Oh my, I LOVED 'Maximum City'...its one of my fav. non-fiction books. I really liked the style, it was like reading a blog, something sort of intimate like that...
    And I would love to sink into that chair, it looks like it is so well-loved.

  5. I quite liked Maximum City. But if its about Mumbai..Shantaram wins hands down. If you haven't read it do try & pick it up.

  7. Well, let's see:
    I just shoveled a few new inches of snow (8-10 more coming Wednesday/Thursday).
    Thinking about making soup.
    Looking at the half-read library books next to me (bios of Mahler and Schubert, books on teaching yourself to draw, and this one--The Gilded Age, The Art of the Frame).
    See my Monday To-Do List if you would like to know more.

    P.S. I LOVE that leather chair.

  9. Hmm... here is where design and practicality clash.. I looooove the corner, the effect of light on the floor.. but seems to impractical. A lovely editorial though.... do I smell the tea, pass some along!

  10. Definitely would remove the lamp from the floor (who puts such a beautiful lamp on the floor?!?!) and clear that clutter from the table!! The leather chair would be replaced with something more soft and warm!! Ha! Definitely not my corner then!! :P
    Let me know how Maximum City was!!
