    Bean(o)-stalk ...and Happy New Year from Zany Xena!

    I had to do some cat wrangling to try and get photos of both cats this evening, as you can see! Maybe next year I’ll try and get all of us in one photo. The House of Fielding wishes you a safe, healthy, and prosperous 2010!

    Last video for 2009: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings performing “100 Days 100 Nights”. I was listening to an interview with Michael Buble this evening and he was saying what a trip Sharon Jones is to work with in the studio (she used to be a prison guard at Riker’s Island!).


  2. Me, Andy Warhol, Balloons, and a Moosehead

    the world fascinates me

    This photo is very “me” — cramming as many unrelated objects into a single frame as possible. I like that Warhol’s quote “The world fascinates me” is reflected from the glass to the mirror onto my head.

    Since today was my last day of 2009 for photos (and the weather warmed up considerably), I thought I would make a slightly longer photo-stroll through my neighbourhood on the way home. I took some photos at a community garden, where a friendly fellow stopped to chat. He talked up the garden’s tomatoes and wished me a Happy New Year. It’s one of the many reasons why I love living here, because it’s urban yet neighbourhood-y.

    A few of my favourites from this afternoon:
