word wizard

PROEFabonnement; how wonderful and enchanting are the handprinted envelopes of Yvette van der Aa. They are full of suprises, poems, labels and word jokes. E.g. there is 'a scourer on the go cut in label form to label and polish up fresh ideas and to scour entrenched patterns'.
And a button brooch with the text 'I'm nice, who are you?'
I signed in to receive PROEFabonnement twice a year (just €12)...what a feast!

She has new skates... and only once in approx. 7 years you can skate on the canal near our house.
and boring books with nice covers in the fleamarket...

nostalgia

Postcrossing, I discovered it recently, is seen as snail mail nowadays in this era of fast modern technology. But it so much fun (more! than via e- mail) to send and receive postcards to and fro the world and having little chats with someone...global village...
On the other hand, the way postcrossing is done it could only exist because of technology I realise that.

yep

Fourteen pages open house tour and about my work...
The e-mails keep coming in but the timing is not so good... I have to keep my legs up due to surgery last Monday.
