so far awaycarole king

So far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away

Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could, but you're so far away

One more song about movin' along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it bein' close to you.

But you're so far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place any more
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away

Travelin' around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothin' else to do but close my mind
I sure do hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams
I've yet to find

But your so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn't help to know youre so far away

today was the annual chinese new year cookie baking day, where all the females my moms side of the family get together and have a monster baking session. Last year, i actually ponned school to do this. and this year, we got to make LOVE LETTERS! we havent made them for eight years already!!!! happily i got to roll them, though right now im feeling a bit cock-eyed, because squinting at hot love letters while sitting in a contorted position the whole day is just not good for the back. And legs. And eyes. wooooo
though we have seven tins [talk about opp cost man] of love letters to show for it! thing about having them home made, is that they arent made so thick. so you get really delicate crispy wafers, that are not half as sweet and cloying as commercial ones. Okay, so im biased. So shoot me.
my mom had a fun time answering all calls today with "hello, 40 guan soon bakery?"
we have mountains of cookies now, as every year, and yes we will have another day to make tarts! and flower cookies! and butter shortbread cookies. and those funny blueberry thingums.

chern!!!!! is back!!!!!!! and she popped by from the airport!!! [and commented that our baking was like a festival. my grandaunts were all very amused] and!!!!!!! she brought fabulous drool worthy things!!!!!! i mean, she brought a krispy creme! and a fantabulistic mega cookie! and chocolate from spain! and a lovely tin full of lovely biscuits!!!! i mean, DROOL DROOL DROOOOOL. and, to top it off, a WHOLE ENTIRE BOOK ON BOTTICELLI!!!!! in other words, or actions, if you will have it- DROOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL i am now officially in love with the angel in profile on the painting madonna of the pomegranate. i ant a botticelli boyfriend!!!!! [and omg the adoration of the magi. botticelli!!!! drool drool drool okay chern you know youve made me one happy girl today GRIN
