I enjoy "all the little treasures" every day. They are proof that there is good in the world (a cliche, but it's how I feel), that friendship/kindredship can exist regardless of proximity...or having actually met. <br /><br />As for seeing bad art at MOMA, I am going to rectify that today by going to the Metropolitan Museum to see the Ink exhibit that Fiona and Barry saw. Xu Bing has a piece in it that Pam and I first saw back in 2001 at the Sackler Museum in DC. I remember being stunned and awe struck at his artistry, creativity, imagination, skill, etc. Fell totally in love with his work and with artist's books. 13 years later, it will be great to revisit...and photograph with a digital camera. Shhhh.....<br /><br />Wishing you a most wondrous 2014! <br /><br />Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927317459104273331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7143591766928521449.post-6415355554498316312014-01-03T20:08:52.031-05:002014-01-03T20:08:52.031-05:00just found this post!

Was so very glad you and Fiona and B were able to catch up, shame about the MOMA art. Tragic really when there is so much interesting or exquisite art to be viewed. Glad you enjoyed all the little treasures that came your way. Love what Noela did with your measles fabric! Hope 2014 is all you could wish for Jennifer. I agree with elizabeth b …. you are a gift.

Thank you. Like you I could have used a few more hours to chat and laugh and see gorgeous things, but there will just have to be a next time. Benign is good and maybe a great way to ponder 2014 as it begins.

I've also been blessed to have made such wonderful friends - both in "real life" and via blogging. The world is vast, but also so very small at the same time thanks to the internet. <br /><br />As for the benign-ness of life right now. Well...it was the best kind. My mom had a tumor removed recently from a spot where tumors are very rarely benign. Her's was. She remains the Bionic Woman (as she used to tell the children in her class...). <br /><br />Life is very, very good.

So much more than benign. . . I think the universe is telling you something. All in all it sounds like a marvelous holiday season!
