you have your mother's day, you have your father's day.....


Gave the wife this rather extraordinarily cute tee for mother's day last week. This tee was at what might be the most awesome store on earth, a Japanese bookstore, giftstore, etc store in New York City, 6th Ave at Bryant Park, like 41st st. In the link you can see the front window of the store---that is where I saw the tee, in that very window! Wouldn't you go inside too, and BUY IT???? The store has English books and stuff too, but mostly cool Japanese stuff...they are so STYLISH...and 2 awesome bathrooms. Don't you love secrets to awesome shopping?
Back to mother's day---it is wise to give nice gifts for mother's day if....you want nice gifts yourself on father's day. I s'pose you could argue that we are the parents of nothing human, and that is true, but it is fun to celebrate the little holidays...and the pets insist.
ANYWAY, I was working on these teapots last week, outta the kiln now. May I say it? WOWZA!

  2. Wowza indeed.
    I do love the tee shirt...very cute. The store looks inviting to me as well.
    Well of course you must celebrate ALL the holidays...whether the critters insist or not. :)

  3. As the parents of human and animals, may I say that sometimes being the parent of an animal is far harder? (Unless you've taught your brood to potty in the toilet and let themselves in/out at all hours of the night)...humans at least usually become somewhat independent at some point...

    Awesome t-shirt!
