Thanks for mentioning my Timmies on Cuteable today!

linear orange

I am always fascinated when two seemingly dissimilar objects end up next to each other in my apartment and they reveal similar traits that I never noticed.

Speaking of linear, my pictures are starting to show up with lines all over it and/or a black shadowy bar showing up at the top and that makes me want to cry,cry,cry. Has anyone heard of this phenomenon, have I worn my poor little camera to death?

My interview at FlashFilm online magazine!

A beautifully laid out interview I did with the online magazine Flashfilm.com is now up! Go check it out to find out my top picks for pizza places in NYC + my "Magical" aspirations.

Timmies added to the shop!

I don't recommend you breathing on anyone after you eat them though.

In the works-

Soon I want to open up a little shop to sell the sturdy canvas bags that I designed for Funtote. Here is the page from the Funtote catalog so you can check them all out. If anyone is interested in pre-ordering let me know and I will offer you free shipping*

*limited time offer to the 3 or 4 people who actually look at this blog. I accept payments in PayPal ($35) and also in Belgian chocolates (the good stuff not the store bought crap from the U.S.), or a lifetime supply of cotton candy and brick oven pizza.

Politically active Timmie?

Cute picture of Timmie #112 by What Dat?.

In other Timmie news I have re-listed Timmie #129 in my etsy shop. In other non-Timmie related news I've started a rubber band ball from the rubber bands the post man leaves in my mailbox. Yes, this is how I spend my exciting weekends.

Horton website is LIVE!

Yay! The website I've been working on for the book "Horton Hears a Who" by Dr. Seuss is up and running. Check out HortonHears.com to see some of my Flash design work.

Herb + Fruit Cleansers

I just came across these herb + fruit cleansers at Williams-Sonoma yesterday. They smell so delicious and are way better for the environment than traditional household cleansers. I looked at the fine print and saw they were made by the company Caldrea.

happy valentine's day!

Hope everyone has a loving day today. I am going to try to hunt down some new shoes in Manhattan this afternoon. Shoes = True Love. Maybe I will meet up with Sal too :)

hello

I put this on the door to my apartment a few years ago. It makes me feel like someone (thing) actually cares.

So, how are YOU today? Tell me.

chewing gum vs eraser gum

These 2 objects ended up by chance near each other on my drawing table. Aren't they so similar!?

Okay, I will get back to work now.

Some bun buns stepping into the shop!

Day trip to the Norman Rockwell Museum

Stockbridge, MA


Unfortunately this cute looking shop was closed the day I went.


Turquoise crosswalk- gotta love it!


I love the "Take a kid fishing".

This is the most fog I've been in. Well, in recent memory. It was hairy scary driving in this much fog.

Here is the loot from the trip. Rosebud Salve, Clark's chewing gum, pure vanilla extract for my mama, and a giant postcard of an awesome painting from the Norman Rockwell Museum.

mushrooms & birds note card

I just added a listing for an individually packaged M&B note card on Etsy.

must.re.sist.

I'm lovin' this glass by Poppins available at Pancake Meow. I would want 90% of the Imports section on that site. You have to also check out the Decole stacking mugs. This tree stacking mug is so great!
