The Boxcar Toddler visited our letterpress headquarters on Valentine’s Day, decked out in a very realistic USPS postman outfit. He didn’t have much time to chat as he needed to pass out over 50 Valentines throughout the old artist warehouse that we call home. Though Valentine’s Day is perhaps a little less romantic with two kids, it certainly is a lot cuter. (Who needs flowers when you have a toddler anyway?!) And okay, okay, we’ll admit the little Valentines weren’t letterpressed this year, but at least they were eco!

The snow is falling fast and furious this morning…once I actually navigated the snow/slush/slippery roadways and got into work, it was much more joyful and peaceful to watch the snow fall into the parking lot and parked cars. Everything is muted today — well, actually, everything has been muted here for months now. But I felt better after trying to match the gray sky here to a color in our Pantone book — it’s totally impossible! The sky isn’t just gray–it’s way more complex. Some blue, a little purple in it, this nice mottled effect…anyhow, gray is supposed to be the big color this year, so at least our winter cloud cover is fashionable here in Syracuse.
