✨peaches, parsnips, lemonade, and oak trees ✨

peaches- what makes you happiest in the world? so many things!!! family + friends, small animals (cats, birds, etc), art, art made by my friends, inside jokes, good food, books and poems that I'll never fully understand no matter how many times I keep reading them, passionate people rambling about the things they love, quiet moments on the train or bus where you can just watch the colors of life fly by through the windows, when people u love and care for send u something they made or show u something they made, tote bags and t-shirts with weird and cute things on them, sharing fruit, sending the people I love things that remind me of them, pretty lights, the ocean (while it also makes me feel many other things), heart emojis, etc, etc.!

parsnips- how do you feel about cooking? whats your favorite thing to cook? cooking is very good, very cleansing imo especially when you’re alone in the kitchen and just vibing with a good playlist going off in the background..very healing but ahahahh I'm a terrible cook like I'm definitely better than linguini from ratatouille,, ik my palettes and some flavor combinations that work and I really love prep work (cutting veggies and meat, cleaning veggies, very good stuff) but I'm Not Good. I have a very bad habit of dumping all and every spice together and hoping it comes out well, so it’s always either too salty, too tangy, too something (but I'll still eat I worked to make it) my favorite thing to cook blackened salmon/chicken with sautéed broccoli, it’s not a lot of ingredients so it’s relatively easy to make and I like the prep work for it like boiling the broccoli and getting the boullion ready 

lemonade- favorite summer memory? ohh there’s so many but I remember going to the park the hour before sunset (if you go any later, mosquitos come out and you’ll regret it later, any earlier and it’ll be too hot to make it past the mailbox) I think it was the first summer I was able to just walk by myself, my parents never let us go by ourselves anywhere, they were always anxious that something might happen. but like that summer I just walked to the closest park that overlooked the lake. I remember how still everything was there, it was after it had rained all day too so the park benches and swings were dripping wet and the grass was slick. I just walked in a circle, the park’s path was just a large circle, and I remember seeing frogs very clearly. they were just there in the grass looking out towards the lake that was at the edge of the park and behind those metal schoolyard fences. I sat with the frog for most of that evening until the sun was nearly gone and the sky was that violent pink orange with the growing indigo on the other side. the frog hopped off eventually and I went home; honestly that summer was probably the loneliest summers (summertime tends to be like that) but it was the first time that I clearly remember wanting to be better, like as a person overall and everything that summer was just begging me to be gentler and kinder and take things slow! very transformative walk!!

oak trees- what element of nature do you feel most connected to? bodies of water!!!! mostly the ocean since I live the closest to it and have spent my life facing the sea, but lakes and rivers are so beautiful! unfortunately I'm surrounded by man-made lakes and canals, I don’t think I've even seen a real, natural-flowing river. 

send me some cottagecore asks?
