New York Times!!!

I'm on the front page of the business section of the New York Times today, on a story called "On to Plan B: Starting a Business". This is all thanks to Outright.com who obviously has a really great PR team. I went to one of their Unintentional Entrepreneur get-togethers where I learned a lot of very useful information, and have been using their online finance account services since then. The orders are rolling in and my mind is reeling!

Singing Sea Shanties for Sea Turtles
I'm so excited, three designs I made for Pretty Green Bag are about to be debuted this week! If you haven't already seen, the first bag I designed for them was released earlier this month:
So cute if I do say so myself. They're sea turtles! And the poor things are dying from eating up plastic bags. So please, cut it out with the plastic. Pretty Green bags are very sturdy and large enough to carry everything I need from the market. Stay tuned for the other three to be released!

my short book review from Goodreads.com
Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
I think I've read this book seven times. One of my all-time faves. The collaboration between Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman (who oddly is not listed here) is a great blend of dark comedy and sci-fi.
View all my reviews.

Eye of Science
A friend clued me in to the Eye of Science website: scientific photography -- life in a microcosmic world. It's the work of a biologist and photographer duo who produce amazing and inspiring images of the tiny details that make up our planet. For a pattern lover like myself, it's lovely to see the minute patterns found in nature.
They also have posters, calendars and books available through their shop. Just look at this gorgeous image of an olive leaf:

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
One has not only a legal, but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
Here's to a beautiful day dedicated to an inspirational man. Imagine what more he could have inspired in his lifetime had it not been cut short to 39 years.
Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn't matter with me now. Because I've been to the mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like any man, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now.
I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people will get to the promised land.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
