sruli recht.

Ok. So unisex shoes. Who would have ever imagined? I happen to think these are totally awesome, and ABSOLUTELY as unisex as they get. Seriously. I want a matching pair of all for Husband and me. And the craftmanship? Simply amazing. Order one for each of you (a good Vday present, perhaps?) right here. YAY

the story of stuff.

About an hour go, I finished finalizing tomorrow’s posts and was just about to shut down my computer to grab a bite to eat with Husband when I received an email from a good friend [holy run-on sentence!]. She forwarded me to this site, where a 20-minute informational [but NOT snoozey] documentary was compiled by

marimekko for cb2.

Anyway, I’ve got to get my ducks

antenna mag.

When husband and I were stuck at the airport for a good seven hours flying home for the holidays, I perused Hudson News for a quick read. I had already read Print, Wallpaper and How (my usual hits), when I stumbled upon Antenna, a mag I’d never heard of. Maybe this is b/c I live

raydel photography.

A friend tipped me off to Raydel last week after spotting him on the UO Blog, which, by the way, is pretty fabulous [minus the LaLohan references]. Anyway, Raydel is a Florida-based, self-taught photographer, which is just amazing to me. How does one teach himself to be awesome? Anyway [again], these are a few of
