After four years strong, TS was finally dethroned as my top artist. Guess it was a very Mitski year. 🤭

Top 5 songs are all Chappell. I’m honestly surprised that Hazbin Hotel didn’t make an appearance, but I guess I was too in my feels this year to make a dent. 😅

I volunteer at a small rural library and got to catalogue these beautiful books from the 1950s and 60s. They’re romances by Frances Parkinson Keyes. After brief Google search, it looks like they’re out of print.

Anyone know these books?

Water stained illustrated book cover for *The Heritage* by Frances Parkinson Keyes. It shows a woman in an old fashion black dress kneeling in the grass with a man in a brown coat standing over her. She’s looking into a pond while he looks at her. A large estate sprawls behind them. A map of the layout of the estate depicted in *The Heritage* by Frances Parkinson Keyes. In the end page. An illustrated cover for *Blue Camellia* by Frances Parkinson Keyes. It shows a woman in a long blue dress standing near a fence with man in a dark suit. In the background, another woman in a yellow skirt stands in an open door watching the couple. The light from the door illuminates the pair. A green-tinted illustration of an old mansion surrounded by trees. In the end page of an old book.

Fall is my favorite time of year. 🍂
(These pictures are mine. Taken in 2018) 🥰
Picture of a gray fall day looking out over a calm river. A large tree obscures most of the foreground. The leaves are yellow and Orange. A calm Fall River. There are hills covered in conifers and trees with orange leaves and moss hanging off the branches. The shore of the river is lines with fallen leaves.

My friend saw this postcard-sized print of a John Williams Waterhouse painting in the bathroom of a Greek restaurant we were eating at and said “I thought of you.”

It feels so good to be truly seen.
Painting by John Williams Waterhouse, “Isabella and the Pot of Basil.” It depicts a woman presumable kneeling in a garden, wearing a flowing gown with long blue sleeves. She’s embracing a large clay pot. The pot is on a small pillar with a skull emblazoned on its base, partially obscured by the subject’s sleeves. Her eyes are closed as if she is smelling the herb growing from the pot. This version is a small print of the work, about the size of a postcard and in a yellow-painted wood or plastic frame.
