9/8: lilian

Lilian is my colleague and friend; we started working at our college at the same time and in the same department, and we've gotten close over the years.  On Friday she gave me a large jar of chocolate truffles!  Today I gave her a thank-you card with a photo of mine, which I thought she'd especially like, of a fiddle-head fern unfolding.

And I think she did like it.  She said that we should say "as the fern unfurls" instead of "as the world turns."
