simply in love with Jillian Tamaki's typography & illustration - her web site & her blog



other recent & cheap thrills

- adding International Delights to my 10am coffee avec my chillin' time - Bonjour Starbuck's-ish current favourite flavour chocolate mint truffle

- Lush Tramp bubbles (patchouli blends & me go way back) I love me some lush bath stuff

- the public library - Hullo ! recent treasures aside from stacks & stacks of books (cookbooks, gardening books, art & design books, fiction, non-fiction, biographies) + magazines, tons of just released movies & television series. Recent gems borrowed Downton Abbey Season 1, Mad Men Seasons 1-4 (whatcha mean Roger's not living in our crawlspace ? - sad face), Wallender 2 (LOVED this - such an incredibly beautiful series from PBS Masterpiece Mystery ), HBO's Boardwalk Empire & Mildred Pierce with Kate Winslet

- fresh pineapple

- new & tres interesting custom illustration & typography jobs (web sites & blogs) x 2 - uh huh !!

- keeping a journal, keeps me sane

- grocery store red carnations that last forever

- our bathroom's being renovated (happy dance !)

- I'm tweeting - I know - Shut ! Up !! it's true

- the beautiful, haunting theme & spectacular scenery from Wallander
