delara, interrupted

I treated myself to a few things recently--some art and some music. Yay!

I have been anticipating Jack Johnson's new album release for quite some time, and it did NOT disappoint! I love it. I can't stop listening to it. At work, I pick it from our playlist and play it over and over--much to the chagrin of my coworkers and our customers. (I'm grateful they just laugh at me.) Must listen. Now. Go.

And while you are listening, think about how cool it is it that Jack Johnson recorded the album using solar power alone. Excellently cool. He has also started his own record label, Brushfire Records, and runs it (along with his world tour) with an impressive level of environmental consciousness. I would expect nothing less, but I am inspired by that kind of commitment.

Also, I have rediscovered my love for K.D. Lang's music. When Ingénue was released in 1992, I was incredibly moved by her talent and got three of her older albums all at once. On cassette tape, mind you. Oh yes. But wow, she has such an incredible voice. And the new CD is beautiful.

Then, just as I thought it didn't get any better, I found a FABULOUS source for some FABULOUS papers online! And among those fabulous papers were ones designed by Amy Butler--one of my favorite designers. Did I already say, FABULOUS!!?? It's worth saying again. Yes. Indeed.

I am a happy camper. Time to get crafting with these gorgeous papers (and brads!!) while listening to some great music!
