I trust that this new arrival at our at-home retreat is enjoying her accommodations. To ensure a comfortable stay for all, we ask that our other guests use a different source of moisturizer cream for the duration of this guest's stay.

From "The Best of Queen" to "The Best of John Williams," our at-home retreat has something for every fan of the low-brass parts of classic songs arranged for student bands!

In place of a flat-screen television, our at-home retreat has Mad Libs and quotes from Transcendalists. If like Emerson you wish your "days to be as centuries," not having cable TV is a good start.

When retiring for the evening, guests at our at-home retreat will find a cat wrapped neatly and placed on their pillow. It's the little details that make our retreat feel just like home.

Not only is our at-home retreat a place for rejuvenation, it's also home to a world-class research facility. Here we seek the answers to questions such as, "How far do different balls bounce when dropped from different heights?" and "Where did I leave my coffee?"

No stay at our at-home retreat is complete without a stroll through the gardens. Nibble some nasturtiums or collect some mint for your tea while you harness the California sun to synthesize vitamin D. If you're patient, you might even catch a glimpse of one of the big-ass lizards that share this outdoor oasis.

Sharing My Stuff (aka Copyright Notice)

This blog is made up of photos I've taken and words and sentences I've written. I hope that what you find here speaks to you and that you share and reference it elsewhere. I also hope that if you share something from Imperfect Happiness that you mention where you found it. It would be even awesomer if you linked back to the original content here.
