very pretty historic map prints.

i'm fascinated by maps, and have been since i pulled my first map out of the famous yellow national geographic magazine. maps have evolved much since then and i love them all. i love maps that spell it out. i love maps on chalkboards. i love vintage school maps. i love maps that make a statement with word design. and now these historic map prints by jason laferrera. i'm spellbound.

milk and toast -- a favourite and most nurturing combination. I like my milk ice cold with a straw (one of those cute paper straws with red stripes), or steaming hot, flavoured with a little vanilla and a lot of cinnamon. my toast -- usually two slices at once, and oftentimes flanked with apple slices or cheddar cheese -- is buttery and crunchy.

while growing old together with this blog, and watching it evolve, I've found joy in the milk and toast of my life, and have carved out a little place in the world wide web to record it. stick around, read a few entries -- perhaps you'll find something you love or can relate to.
