frances cake, take 11: the pumpkin isn't just for pie edition

let me tell you a little bit about jeremy.

jeremy is the kind of person who will see a vintage copy of a children's book with your name in the title (in this case, "bread and jam for frances") and buy it for you, just because, even though he doesn't know you very well.

jeremy is the kind of person who hosts watch-cartoons-in-your-pajamas parties. and he has all the good ones, including "he-man" (by the power of gray skull!), "smurfs" and "the gummi bears."

jeremy is the kind of person who was raised by a florist father and a jill-of-all-trades mother, who taught him to value creativity and beauty, so he is the kind of person who is majoring in interior design, but also takes photographs, paints with acryllics and writes children's stories.

jeremy is the kind of person who can tap a bundt pan just right, so your delicious pumpkin cake comes out without a problem.







jeremy is the kind of person who doesn't mind that the cake is a little crispy on the outside. he is the kind of person who says he likes it better that way.

and then, while you eat cake together, jeremy is the kind of person who will talk with you about favorite books, favorite paintings, favorite movies, and about how the creative process is less about what you get at the end and more about what you learn along the way.

in other words, jeremy is my kind of person.
