Works in progress.

Hello friends,

Aren't we all works in progress - striving to be brave and better or shiny and perfect? I know I am and so is my writing.

I have had pieces in the works including one titled Christmas Tree(mont) based on my fab dinner at The Treemont in December. The mulled wine deserves its own blog post, to be honest.

Here's the cobia, that you really should try.
 

Another is about our trip to Batard where we indulged in four desserts.

Here's the truffle ice cream.

However, I am making some changes. Consider the blog under construction. I'm not sure what it will be and that's the fun part. Thanks to the encouragement of friends throughout the years (and now I'll name names Holley, Kevin, my mom, my dad, my grandmother, Justini) and their advice to write every day, work on the novel and get back to the blog.

I am.

I signed up for a class from the writer Tyler Knott. I love his writing (that I read on Instagram) and I've decided that it's time to get the dust off of the novel and be brave.

Hemingway also said "write, drunk." So there's that.

In the mean time, I'll get my Treemont blog post started.

And figure out where to eat for my birthday.

xoxo,
Your friend,
Caroline
