So simple. So good. Found object printed type spotted on Kindra is Here. It reminds me of the genius alphabet photos by the photographer Domi Mora.

I was really feeling this sentiment during the holidays when we had a blissed out, no-tech week or so. Thankfully, by way of a reminder now that life has resumed its frantic gadget-checking, the kooky and grand Bread and Puppet Theater in Vermont has this campy poster to help us resist our more disconnected urges. (I seriously might get this for my too-plugged-in younger siblings….)

And, in the spirit of all things heartily hands-on, I am loving Stephanie’s book club idea. Random folks showing up in a cozy spot for coffee and a book discussion? Brilliant. There are few things better than lively book chatter, and the idea of creating community through it is spot on. That Stephanie is mighty clever.

And if you haven’t made it over to Barry Whistler Gallery to see our friend Jonathan Cross’ excellent show Plane Forms, you have until Saturday. His new ceramic work is stunning and earthy, especially alongside the hilarious and beautiful drawings by Lawrence Lee. (Image courtesy Allison V. Smith for Barry Whistler Gallery.)
