Here is the most unusual, an experimental paper with wax, front and back: The texture of this thick waxy paper that still smells like wax is beyond description. I can only say that it's a grabber, the feel is like nothing else, and I touch it at least once a day.  Infatuation or true love, I'm enthralled with the stuff and very lucky that Frieder included this unique piece.

This fine ink print on the green paper is a winning combination: Last but definitely not least, Frieder included "my" weather book. So far he will not reveal where he got this book, but it is utterly charming. The cover is below, and then the pages will be put in a comment. I LOVE all of it, Frieder--thank you so much!

Oh prettylily, I don't think tiredness of it will happen. In fact I know it won't. But I'll leave it to you in my will.

Well then, let's hope you have snow by Saturday to keep the weather book correct. I count on it to be correct 6 out of 7 days and hope that isn't unreasonable.
