a box of teas from Adagio. Mmmmmm…. genmai cha, earl grey green, darjeeling and (a new one to me) kukicha. *mmmmmmmm* Thanks, mom!
Maybe it will help me get through my insane ecologically-minded decision (made this week) not to use any wrapping paper this year… but to sew fabric bags to cover gifts instead.



here’s my wrapping-paper-tip from last year: I got the nephews to go nuts with crayons on recycled paper. really nuts… I wish I had pictures of the paper they made for their grandma: it had umpteen “reindeer” and “polar-bears”. I use brackets because the colors were waaaay off. and then just used kitchen-string to keep it all together. cute, artsy and free.
ps: love the new site-design.
Very cool! I have a huge roll of butcher paper too. Thanks!
