Everybody has their favorites when it comes to basic land art. Among the group of friends I play with, one gentleman takes that sentiment very seriously. So seriously in fact, that he has a set of sleeved basics he plays with for all his drafts. What's so special about that you might ask? His basic lands of choice are 75 Gurus. Take a minute to digest that fact. Conservatively speaking that's $5,000 worth of basic lands. The Guru style has been emulated by many alter artists onto a myriad of cards. I've done quite a few myself (as seen in my blog banner). But never any actual Gurus. Thats is, until now. Simon's collection is something pretty special. I'm honored to be part of it now!

Reading together time was always a highlight for the girls as they were growing up. I used to read story after story. Even at 11 and 16 my girlies still love reading time given the right story. Annie cuddles right up with me and Chiana sits close "doing something else" but listening all the same. We all pretend she's "too old for that". We all know better. I love this quiet reading/cuddle time. I found the perfect story time book on my vintage expedition last weekend. A 1974 story book featuring stories from authors and illustrators from countries all over the globe. I almost jumped up and down when I saw it included some of my favorite childhood authors Annie M.G. Schmidt (Dutch from Jip and Janneke fame), and Astrid Lindgren (Swedish from Pippi Longstocking fame). "Wooden Shoes" was illustrated by Marijke de Graaf and "Nils Karlsson, the Elf" (now our new favorite story ever) was illustrated by Ilon Wikland. What an awesome find. Killevippen!
The baby was completely oblivious the entire time.
