Japanese Calligraphy in English


Australian Inkslinger, Merissa Walker does a creative turn on Japanese calligraphy and the result is fresh. Her calligraphy adorns spunky cards and cushions among other products.

Organizing Demons

This list of note-taking tools and techniques entrances me. I keep coming back to it and looking for more. These organize-it demons are trapped inside me and I don't know if I can keep them at bay much longer.

Dan was right


I like these D'Addario Guitar Strings much better than whatever it was that was shipped with my guitar.

Pho Cyclo Cafe - Tasty, fast, fresh

Last night we ate at the Pho Cyclo Cafe new location on Broadway (near Harrison). The folks there were so nice and helpful to us (we don't know a great deal about Vietnamese food). We had the fresh rolls and the #19 and #25 (as usual I can recall numbers much better than names) both were delicious and fresh. Iced Tea was tasty, too. It is definitely worth a repeat visit and we are glad to have a new place we can bring our curtain climber to.

Summer Fun


When the sun is relentlessly beating through the craft room window, it's good to get out of that hot,stuffy craft room and into a fast and furious water fight. And these Hydro stiks are the BEST armaments! You can get them through NSR and other whitewater outfitters.
