Rooftop Gardens

I really enjoy living in a city but as soon as it gets warm outside I start yearning for lazy days spent sitting in Adirondack chairs in my very own back yard, sipping a mint julep. A good compromise would be one of these awesome rooftop gardens!

Happy Late Father's Day!!!

Dear Father's:

Happy Belated Father's Day! I have posted some images of my father in celebration of yesterday. He is the funny looking guy in the middle. Just joking, Dad, you were adorable. Someday I've gotta borrow that pocket protector you're sporting in the third image. Happy Father's Day wherever you are. And Happy Father's Day to my new father Kraiggers!

New Branding Materials

We are working on some new stickers for our packaging and here is one I came up with today. Not sure it is practical (lacks the punch of an all-red FRAGILE) but I think it is more fun than the regular FedEx stickers.

Oh, it was inspired by this Charlie Harper illustration.

Thai Hotels!

Right before I fall asleep at night I like to browse real-estate listings and also find beautiful hotels that I hope to some day visit with alissa. Here are two that just made my list :)

Sadly I wouldn't consider myself the camping type, but this tented camp I could definitely get in to.



Also in Thailand, this hotel --


Not only is it beautiful but it has a wonderful cooking school right on premise. I would love to buff up on some Thai dishes in that kitchen!

Eberhard & Co.

During my rare free moments I like to browse through the beautiful items on 1stdibs. Last night I found myself in the jewelry section and happened upon this vintage Eberhard and Co. one button chronograph. Oh, how I love it. I sent an email requesting the price but its as if they knew I couldn't afford it and never got back to me :-)
