everything feeds process

After a few hectic weeks at work, I feel like listing some of the things that are feeding me lately.

1. The first brisk morning of the fall.
2. The sun breaking across the horizon while I exercised this morning.
3. The ridiculous bravery and teamwork exemplified by the men in Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage, which I’m reading for school. 
4. The bounty of fall apples, which we’ve been getting from the Farmer’s Market for the past few weeks. This week, we’re enjoying Jonathans. I haven’t sprung for Honeycrisps yet.
5. The giddy anticipation I feel as I look forward to this weekend, when I get to see a whole slew of friends that I haven’t seen in months…or sometimes years.
6. The prospect of making Butternut Squash Soup by myself for the first time tonight. I’m using soy milk instead of half and half, since my husband’s lactose intolerant.
7. Finally understanding why everyone likes The White Stripes and Peaches, 10 years too late.
8. The feeling of a new project for my writing, tingling just on the edges of everything else.

This is what’s feeding me today. What’s feeding you?
