a mug must be mugged

Do you go digging through an overabundance of mugs to find the one that's right for you each day?

This museum...

is really cool inside and out. The Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton, MA has interesting exhibits and a lovely gift shop in a pretty wooded setting on a lake which actually comes into the building plan, almost rising over the terrace. I like close up views of textures and patterns in uncommon materials, so you'll have to go there to see the larger objects. It's a nice way to spend an afternoon with a friend.

on the outside...

Different, huh? Beautiful and compelling labels. Would be nice to try the wines and taste if they match the aesthetics of what you see. 

silvers and blues

I like silver better than gold, it's a pretty color for jewelry and chrome on cars. It's amazing how it creates a mirror but you never see the color tinting the reflections like the blue part around this one.

This would be a good ritual workout with your kids, joining the world for a dance every day!

a new twist

When the day seems dark and you're feeling twisted and salty, remember these fun pretzels made by Bachman and think about keeping it fun for the kids.

the heart of our history

 

These shelves in my parents' living room stacked in this order from top to bottom are curios reflecting my special family. An affinity for the sea and arts and crafts of all kinds, we are eclectic.

natural phenomenal winter beauty

impressive impression

If you're looking for something different and super sweet, try a layer of guava paste in your cake, it's delicious!

 This commencement speech by Denzel Washington is incredibly inspiring in ways that make clear who I want to be and who I want to be around. Give it a listen and I promise you will be moved too!
