Letter Press Vegetable Garden Themed Note Cards 12 Saturn Press, Fine Letter Press-- Garden Themed Note Cards. As noted by my new friend Jane at Saturn Press...
Paper is the most recycled product on the planet. Don't opt for that telephone call or email delivery of your thoughts, think on this...Electronic memory mediums begin to degrade within weeks of creation, and the devices that read these media rarely last more than a few decades. Reel to reel magnetic tape? Compact disk? Think I'll put our money on the Magna Carta. Ink put on paper in the year 1215!
These note cards are made up of 12 different heirloom vegetable prints with descriptions on the back of each card. They are lovely.

We're Off to Meet the Wizard! Donated by Jack Drucker and Francesca Elms

Wizard is not the next Dungeons & Dragons type craze, but an easy-to-learn card game that’s challenging, habit-forming, and loads of fun! It's a bit like bridge, but much simpler. Come to the Elms-Druckers for a fun time. You'll learn the game in no time, and have a blast for several hours of play. Refreshments, too! (Jan. 27th snow date)
