Why "Conscious Daydream"?

Why "Conscious Daydream"?

W. H. Auden wrote, "A daydream is a meal at which images are eaten. Some of us are gourmets, some gourmands, and a good many take their images precooked out of a can and swallow them down whole, absent-mindedly and with little relish."

I aspire to be neither a gourmet, nor a gourmand. I fancy myself an epicure, one with sensitive and discriminating tastes especially in food or wine. I aim to be sensitive and discriminating in all things, not just food and wine. My ultimate goal is to live consiously and compassionately, yes, even in my daydreams.

I intend to blog about those things which most interest me and that I most often daydream about; principally: food, music, and literature.

Welcome! Namaste! Enjoy!

I Love Shutterfly

I use lots of photo-printing sites, but I have to admit that Shutterfly is my favorite right now.  It is very easy to use, customizable, and they run great promotions and coupons.  Here is one of my latest projects, a birthday card for my niece:
