deconstructed lupine

our son is on a two week camping trip and i get to date my husband for a little while. I feel equally unsettled about not being the supervisor of our precious charge, and happily energized about a schedule dictated by my creative urges and the occasional sneak to an impromptu dinner, rather than by soccer practice and shopping malls. today I found a playmate in lupine, and we spend a delightful couple of hours together.
