NIGHT AND DAY

warm, pretty orange tones from the perfect blanca gómez to contrast the winter chill in new york right now.

HERZOG AND THE MONSTERS

check 'em out at the stationery position.

POLSKA!

despite the cool kids having spilled over to greenpoint from williamsburg long ago, i still love its old polish feel.

these vintage book covers from a journey round my skull are great.

POSTAL PRESS

kick off the new year with this beautiful specimen calendar from portland's postal press.


resolution to keep a journal in 2010?
take a peek at their cutey farm animals. cheers!

2010 CORRESPONDENCE

happy new year!
one of my resolutions, like many i suspect, is to stay in better touch with my fave raves. looking back, 2009 inadvertently become the year of my job, and before i knew it, zach and i had been back in brooklyn for a whole year already. i was too far out of touch.

time flies. one way to slow it down is to make/take time to send a missive or two or ten to the important peeps. pancake & franks makes it easy.

the only hard part is deciding which to start with -- her everyday box or the gourmet box? both are very darling.

to a great 2010!
be good; keep in touch...
