I’m glad you showed a picture of her kitchen. She was also a wonderful cook. Her assistant/companion compiled her recipes in “A Painter’s Kitchen: Recipes from the Kitchen of Georgia O’Keeffe.” They are simple, but delicious (especially her Roast Leg of Lamb with Garlic). I think how a person cooks is another insight into “how they lived.” Monet was quite a cook at his home and studio in Giverney—“Monet’s Table.” I also loved the way O’Keeffe dressed; often wished I could find clothes like hers. Thank you for this wonderful postcard.

Another excellent Postcard. Georgia's spaces were just gorgeous and so "her" in many ways. And I love her quote at the end - it put me in a calm and happy mood to start the day (so perhaps I'll skip the news this morning!). Thanks, Deda!

I wonder what she would have thought of our nation today, the disgraced twice impeached Donald Trump, the illegitimate Supreme Court and the tragedy of gun violence. hmmmm?????
