"Days In A Life"









"Days In A Life"...
by C. S. Merrill...
The 'feel' of this old casita is amazing...
Reading "Days In A Life" while here seems perfect...
"Breakfast with O'Keeffe
fresh sliced fruit, fresh orange juice
Jasmine tea or fresh coffee
hot chili with oil
marinated with garlic
in the fridge overnight;
maybe eggs soft-boiled
or scrambled, to your taste,
the bread a meal itself
whole wheat flour and soy flour,
wheat germ, ground flax seed,
sunflower seeds, and butter
mixed with safflower,
then savory jam maybe
ginger and green tomato
or sweet raspberry.
One day she said
what do you write about me?
Are you going to tell
what I eat for breakfast?"

April, 1974
C.S. Merrill on O'Keeffe
