she read, she saw...

This is my weekly Friday feature. I send my daughter, who is in interning in D.C. for the summer, a photograph I've taken and she sends me back a quote she feels goes with it. So the image is something I photographed that touched me and the words are something she read that touched her. Hopefully, both pieces will be a bit more inspiring as a result...


"There is no feeling more comforting than knowing you are right next to the one you love." - anon.

Have a super weekend and I'll see y'all on Monday!


PS - I often get asked about the photos so I've decided to save a little time and just give you the info' in advance.  I took this one at a diner in Sedona, AZ sometime in the early 1990's.  The diner is closed now.  I think it was for an assignment about using primary colors in a photograph OR capturing the feel of a place through details.  I'm old, can't remember which one exactly but I know it was one of those.

This post could be for Captain V's youngest who truly loves his tomato sauce [or ketchup as I think you'd know it].
Me? I'm a grainy mustard kind of gal and would love to be sitting in this diner with Captain V and his kids enjoying the vibe.

Happy weekend,
xx Felicity

My daughter would eat ketchup sandwiches if I let her.

Another winning combo from you two! Heinz ketchup bottle is oddly comforting as it's origins are in home town of Pittsburgh. Have a great weekend Jeanette!

Just looking at this photo makes me laugh. The Mustard and Ketchup look very happy together.
The quote is wonderful.

I know this is quite late to comment but I hope some rain made its way up to you. We had a fabulous rain tonight with a lighting show that just wouldn't stop. So exciting.

Have a wonderful weekend.

cheers, parsnip
