The clock may be a soulless mechanism, but gift of time and presence light up the sky like divine revelation here at Auspicious Projects, where our desserts taste like 3 days of love on a spoon.

I crossed “body photography” off my 2010 to-do list last year on Thanksgiving. It was a day of luminous flow to celebrate the body with yoga, chocolate and some ceremonial singing bowl before the body of work happening began.
I’ve always been rather comfortable in my body, [...]
