QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

Well, stuffy me pink!

My brother pointed these out to me. They're all designed by Native artists. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. I have a huge stuffed animal collection and I try to no longer add to it, but OH MY DAYS.

Here's a few, but go see them all!  (The whole site has lovely stuff.)

My brother's favorite. He's jolly!

In other news - some new music:

K'naan has a new EP out and released this single.



If you heard this on the radio, would you guess it's Miley Cyrus? From a new album of Bob Dylan covers.
