Hello, my beloved-but-neglected blog readers! I've been having lots of wonderful adventures that have kept me busy living and away from my site. I'm posting a slew of images and placeholders in the following week. On a July road trip, I'm hoping to annotate those images and catch up on my blogging. Please stay tuned.

Watching Jenn and Josh like TV
I am delighted to add Jenn and Josh to my Friends Gallery. They are great friends who'll be moving away soon for new professor-ing adventures at Texas A&M. They will be missed very much.

I am super excited about the Eames stamps! It sounds like these were a long time in the making, and still not quite here yet. I'll have to save them for the very, very best mail.

We're very excited to share our work with you and to collaborate with Jason Loper of Zola Jones! His storefront is going to be chock full of craft and fun. Let's hope some beautiful weather.
Also, Montrose Avenue has a lot of great things to do and see. The Brown Line stop is all shiny and new. Glenn's Diner's fish dishes are very tasty. Margie's Candies will satiate your sweet tooth. See art and learn about classes at Lill Street Art Center. Check out the Chicago Taoist Tai Chi Center where I had a great time learning about moving meditation.
