and another thing...

we've been featured in two great blogs recently and I wanted to recognize the accomplishment!

first from the best paper shop around, PH Design Shop:

they had a great article about The Local Paper and they currently carry our products ... if you're in the area, stop by and check our stuff out, plus all the other awesome items they carry ... !

next from dear friend and accomplished designer/photographer Adam Cook:

thanks Adam, I'm so glad you like the paper! got some great new ideas about wrapping from you ... nice pics!

anyway, happy holidays to all, and hopefully there'll be more stories on this end soon.

happy weekend!

farmers market finds


I got these beautiful heirloom zucchini of all things, at the farmers market today, along with acorn squash, basil, and tiny tomatoes (not pictured) ... then made zucchini bread, courtesy of smittenkitchen from aforementioned courgettes. It was really great in an unexpected kind of way ...

And its finally here ... these are the first images of it at the printers and it should be available to YOU soon ... so hold your breath, this time it really will be here before you know it.
