Mameshiba...not quite a bean, nor a dog but perhaps a hybrid of both. They love to appear out of nowhere and offer random bits of trivia whether you asked for it or not...

Fall

Here are some scenes from the car. Chaz and I took a little road trip up to the northern part of the state over the weekend. I was amazed by all the colors. It was like patchwork. So vibrant even on a grey day.

A Nice Visit



--------------------------------------------------------------------------



Last week my friend Chris visited from Birmingham. We had a good time eating lots of food, finding treasures at the flea market, and goofing around. I made Japanese food for everyone. My most successful attempt at making gyoza. Next time it'll be even better, I hope. The first time I tried I was so excited I forgot to add any kind of seasoning like salt, pepper, soy sauce, ginger. Needless to say, they were pretty bland. This time I made sure to add all the ingredients. We feasted like kings. It was nice having a visitor. I sure do miss my friends that have moved or live far away.

Ticino

Electra has a new brand of bicycles coming out next month called Ticino. I think they're adorable. They've been described as retromodern, referencing styles from the 1940s and 50s. Take a look...

Sadao Watanabe

When I was visiting Okinawa this past summer I became aware of Japanese printmaker, Sadao Watanabe. His work is very interesting for he takes biblical subjects and scenes and renders them in a traditional style of Japanese folk art. He uses paper made from mulberry trees and traditional organic and mineral pigments.
