Bride's Day, Then and Now
Filed under: LifeI have an entire folder of Bride's Day (Imbolc) pictures from this year, but I'm still too tired to sit down and pick through the contents. (The build-up this year was frenzied, and we managed to accomplish WAY, WAY more on the day than expected. <- ITALICS MADE US LUNCH! WE BAKED TWO KINDS OF BREAD! I WATCHED A NEIGHBOR DIE WHILE MAKING CREME BRULEE! SEX, OF THE SHOWER, ORAL AND ANAL KIND! WE CLEANED! I CREATED AN ALTAR! WE MADE BRIDE'S BED! THE OLD WOMAN VISITED! WE FINALLY COOKED THE BRISKET THAT HAD BEEN BRINING FOR ALMOST A WEEK!)
While I wait for my energy levels to recover (energy levels of the mental kind, anyway) I thought I'd pluck some seasonally appropriate pictures from LAST year to fill the void. (<- The celebration of lactating void!) Once I feel a little more like myself I'll sort the images from this year and better explain the rituals, menu and reasons behind Bride's Day in this house.
