green

After a month of no showers——we finally got a boatload of rain. My peonies are in bloom and I'm eager to get back out in the garden.

Oh, Can anyone identity the pink and red ball-like clustered flowers?

Oh oh oh, the man with the green hat... if you immerse him in water, squeeze his hat, he squirts!!

xx + xy = ?

Here's evidence of an 'educational game' that Tim crafted for the babyshower. Thanks to everyone who played along.

I place my bets on a boy???!!

Last weekend we threw a babyshower for Jen and Jay and celebrated their soon-to-be-delivery with friends and family. the day was sunny and breezy and perfect in many ways. just sort of recovering from all the scurrying around, cooking, frosting, yardwork, hosting...

POM-POM!

This kit is a great find! Lot's of pom-poms in my family!

corita kent

Ah ha Corita!

Top five images are scanned from the book Come Alive: The Spirited Art of Sister Corita .

The bottom image: K—Essence of a Thousand Kisses is an original serigraph by Corita, and can also be found in the book
Damn Everything but the Circus. The print sits beside my couch.

Network, Teamwork

I love love love this project by Uta Eisenreich. It's not new but remains quite perfect. I finally scanned in her images from Swiss Design 2002: Netzwerke / Réseaux / Networks. The book is published by Lars Müller. [Apologies for the blurred edges, my book wouldn't lie flat].

little things

from the Best Word Book Ever by Richard Scarry. 1963 by Golden Press.

rack and runner

We finally installed the carpet runner that leads to my studio!

Stories Behind the Records

Always fascinating. I'm envious of the pogo guy's record. really.

From Guiness: the Stories Behind the Records. Published 1982 by Sterling Publishing Co., Inc.

Whole Earth

I just revisited my copy of the Whole Earth Catalog. I always find it enlightening and genuine in spirit. Where is the 2009 iteration/compilation? or is there?

I gave a talk tonight in front of a crowd. I've been so anxious but it's over!
