Check out Pasadena resident Petrea Burchard’s new blog, Pasadena Daily Photo. The photography is terrific, and the commentary is lovely, too.

(I found this blog by way of Wired Women, a local women-focused email newsletter published by Monica Hubbard. To receive it, email monica.hubbard@charter.net.)

Pasadena artist (and my dear friend) Alyssa Sherwood is selling these lovely little Horace pillows. They are perfect for sensitive, creative children (and adults). Every part of Horace, from the thread he is sewn with to his packing materials, is friendly to the environment, and when you hold him up to your nose and smell him, you smell nothing — no traces of funny chemical or ink smells. He’s clean and lovely and well constructed and perfect for imaginative little people.

It’s so empty.

We’ll miss you.
