Honey Bee by Zee Avi

I was even humming it yesterday when I stepped on a bee and got stung on my toe. I'm still humming it. RIP Honey Bee.

Collect on Fire


Culver City's art scene is heating up.

I found this in my archives and it made me crack up. I love images that show a sense of humor. There's not nearly enough of it in photography or most art forms, in my humble opinion.

Little Pink Houses



I grew up in homes with brown or neutral walls. I always wanted my room to be painted yellow. We just moved into a home that we are going to remodel. Much of the house is dark wood panel. Some walls are that beige that is neither here nor there. The first thing I did when we moved in was to let the kids paint the walls, ceilings and floors. I wonder why so many people shy away from color in their homes. It's so easy to paint and repaint. And what a difference a shade makes.
