Cristina Blank aka 5 Blanks: Cristina has a new Job, but who will tell her husband?

Every once in a while a mail art piece arrives and just blows your mind.  This time it came in a plain Brown paper bubble envelope.

I opened the envelope and found a small box.  The kind of box you find engagement rings in.  I started by looking at the bottom of the box, and became very excited.

The cover of the box took my fanny immediately.  There was just…

The Campbell's soup Kid: Keith S Chambers

Before the main attraction, this is one I received last summer from Keith's road trip to Napel, Iowa?

 

This brings back wonderful memories.  You're sick in bed, you don't have to go to school and your Mom brings you Campbell's Pickin Doodle soup. (Or if you are from the South, maybe one of these two.)…

Valentine Mark Herman: Cruisin for a Bruisin

This reminded me of the musical I saw in London called "Wicked"; the untold story of the Witches of Oz.

Before the end of the first half there was a fantastic song called; "Me and Mrs. Troll"  

I think the lyrics went something like this: 

                                Me and Mrs. Troll

                                 We…

Alicia always amazes me with her style.  How she can be so creative despite living in the most frozen part of the world is beyond me.

But WAIT!
