    "Great vocab didn't save the Thesaurus"

    It was just this weekend that our friend Dan stated.
    "When I was a kid, I thought a Thesaurus was a well read dinosaur"
    Too bad I already got his Christmas present.

    I've got a woody.

    I have to say, I don't know if I approve.

    The Kami Mug
    Kami means paper, and the Kami mug is hand crafted in a workshop in Hokkaido Japan by Hidetoshi Takahashi. The cup is made from Castor Aralia wood, shaped using a potter’s wheel (Katz's note: I believe they mean Lathe, unless that is the softest of soft woods) and coated with a food safe resin.

    Nine years since my first date with my Sweetie. 
    Love you, Mrs. Rose.

    Menorah-ty Report

    12.03.2010

    Although my name implies otherwise, I am not a member of the tribe.
    That said, I have always have had a soft spot for the menorah. I like it as a conceptual project.
    "Make something that holds nine flames. No other rules."
    That said. I've been a little disappointed this year. I haven't found a lot of ceramic menorahs that I am crazy about. But I find there three to be charming examples of what ceramic menorahs can be.
