Happiness

A few reasons that I'm smiling on this lovely Sunday morning:

1. I still can't get over this seriously amazing sandwich/work of art that one of the kids brought for lunch on Friday. As a former sandwich artist (whattup Subway!), I know just how much talent this must have required. Behold:

2a&b. I made two fantastic purchases in Harvard Square yesterday.

2a: This awesome print of monuments in Paris. It's actually wrapping paper, but I plan to frame it!


2b: A Charley Harper coloring book!!!!!! Call me a child, call me a preschool teacher, but I am beyond excited to start coloring in my "own" Charley Harper (*favorite artist alert*) masterpieces. Next stop: CVS for a 64-pack of crayons with a sharpener in the back (do they still make those??).




3. T-minus 3 days until I move into my new adorable apartment with Domenica and Fina. There will be baking, and lots of it :)
Hope everyone is having a sunny and funny weekend!

The perfect Valentine's gift

Remember this post where I discovered my love of the artist Charley Harper? Well, my very thoughtful boyfriend gave me a Charley Harper print of "Neck and Neck" for an anniversary/Valentine gift. My first piece of real art! We are so adult. For a slightly better picture and more of Harper's work, go here. And while we're at it, here's the February print from the calendar!
