This week in swag

I've gotten some pretty neat swag in the past few weeks.

My friend Deepti, the fittest chick in the western hemisphere, sent me this postcard from her sojourn to the Galapagos:
It's my first postcard from a South American country! And it's from the island chain that has played a huge part in our understanding of evolution. Yay Darwin! Yay Galapagos Islands! Yay Deepti!


As cool as that postcard is, here's something that is even rarer, it's swag from a member of my extended family:

It's a lap quilt my Aunt Gail in Michigan made for us. It's a very beautiful quilt and Gail is a true fiber artist. She also sent us a Christmas hanging thingy that we love but we only display it during the holidays, so this new quilt she made for us is pretty keen because we can use/display it year around. Thanks again for the great quilt Gail!


And thank all of you folks who have sent me swag in the past, you all rock!
