What it does star is me taking off in a comfortable (but not flashy) car with my camera. I drive all over America, experiencing its various landscapes and cities. And food. I film, I write. Sometimes I sleep in a boat on a quiet lake, surrounded by pines. I meet Le Doc in the desert, and Mimi in an LA diner. It's easy, quiet, nobody needing or wanting anything from me, just space to breathe and think and dream and watch the stars.<br />My other fantasies are all about the wool jersey. Or sometimes silk jersey. I imported a whole roll of that from China once. *Those were the days*. <br />Minx Marplenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606088928583067206.post-38440299174818981622013-02-24T07:16:19.484-05:002013-02-24T07:16:19.484-05:00Oh lord.

My fantasy usually involves Scotland--a lush garden that wanders into secret glades with rustic benches. But ya know, the sun disappears a lot there. ;)<br /><br />I meant to comment on your lovely Tiramisu dress a few posts back. Absolutely gorgeous!

In it, I have a nice big gothic-style stone mansion on top of a hill overlooking impossibly green grass dotted with a herd of Herefords (polled, of course). I have a housekeeper, a gardener, a well behaved brown eyed boy, a set of grey eyed twin girls (also well behaved), a trustworthy hired hand for when we want to take a vacation, and my husband and I get to spend the days caring for our cattle and children, no 8-5 jobs, and no money concerns. *Sigh* That would be heaven. :-) I'd totally spend time in your Italian villa though, and I'll be sure to give advance warning--don't want to interrupt anything. ;-)<br /><br />I'm sorry that your daughter isn't feeling well still.
