We spend most of our lives conjugating three verbs: to want, to have, and to do.

In the days of Marco Polo, rhubarb was worth several times as much as opium. I can hear the sound of empires crumble...

Apply yourself both now and in the next life. Without effort, you cannot be prosperous. Though the land be good, you cannot have an abundant crop without cultivation.

THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS. A "simple" sinewave synthesizer triggered by an ordinary 16step sequencer.
It's pretty simple click to make a tune. I started out clicking strategically and by the end was just wildly clicking. So much fun!

Things I Love Thursday
This week I am much-loving:

Top of my list this week is getting a sneak preview of the wedding dress of one of my dearest friends. Just stunning, the style was not one I expected her to choose but it looks perfect on her. K and I have been friends since school, sometimes I wonder what our early-teenage selves would think if they could see us now. I think yesteryear K would be proud, though she’d never admit it.
Much Ado about Nothing –I enjoyed it enormously and am glad to say my misgivings about the 1980s setting were proved false. We had a lovely Saturday in London & Much Ado About Nothing was the jewel in the crown.
Seeing a mum & her twin babies interacting on a train (their body languages synchronized perfectly!)
Mini-adventures, indoor picnics complete with picnic basket, dinner parties, long conversations about everything and nothing all at the same time. Tea, wine, giggles and belly laughs. Life is always good with friends.
So reader, over to you what’s making your list this week? I always enjoy hearing some of the things that have made your week worth living.

The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

Friday Find
A bit of a cheat this week because this isn’t a new find but this week has gone by in a bit of a blur and so I’m hoping you’ll be so bowled over by the comic genius of this weeks find that you’ll forgive me reader:
