i'm having a hard time sleeping. the crows are making melodies outside my window and my eyes are wide. i'm ready to make tea and walk on these legs but shit! it's 5 52 in the fucking morning!?? anxious limbs and anxious brain. yesterday was spent all day at the asylum watching a whole bunch of talented duders burning the back walls. today will be spent there as well with a half bottle of wine, some pens some friends and a pair of pants this time. it's getting to feel a little chilly and fall-ish. but i don't mind. the curtains draped over my window inhale and exhale so gracefully. i think i might take a walk and watch the sun rise and soothe my fickle frame of mind.
also here's a real easy recipe for rosewater lemonade. the top recipe is for the lemonade concentrate (the sweetener) and the bottom is the rest of the recipe!
lemon juice – 1 cup (7ish lemons)
water – 1/3 cup
sugar – 1 cup
before cutting it in half, place yer lemon on a flat surface and roll it with your palm.
cut the lemons and squeeze the juice. strain and compost the seeds.
make sure that you have exactly 1 cup of lemon juice.
in a separate pan boil water. when the water starts to boil, remove from heat and add sugar.
stir it well. allow it to cool.
then add lemon juice, stir it well.
lemonade concentrate – 1/4 cup
rose water – 1/8 cup
water – 2 1/4 cup
ice cubes – a few
combine all the ingredients except ice cubes. stir it well and refrigerate.
serve it cold.

this just inspired me to make lavender tea tomorrow. do you like lavender? i've got a recipe for lavender vodka. it's not so much a recipe as, you know, put lavender into a bottle of vodka for 48 hours and then strain it.
mmm i love lavender! lavender vodka sounds tasty as well... i wonder if it would still taste alright if you replaced the vodka with gin? vodka is good,i have a soft spot for gin.
...sort of off topic, but have you ever made green dragon? the marijuana extract kinda thing?
oh man, i think it would be really good with gin! i never thought of it, gin already tastes like a delicious pine nettle forest...adding lavender would be like seeing a unicorn on a walk through said forest or something. i have never made green dragon, but i do know that any kind of marijuana tincture or oil has a tendency to make me want to die. because i'm a pussy.
