Yeah, she thought you might be more interested in 中國傳統裝訂書的技術. She knows a tiny bit about them, but hasn't trained in them. Anyway, bookbinding is an amazing skill.

At the Yaza cafe in Nelson on a Saturday morning, and the barista thought I needed a kind of bear creature on my mocha. Maybe I did.

A large mocha on a wooden table with a bear made out of milk foam on top of it looking out.

I just finished reading the book 'Departure(s)' by Julian Barnes. It has stories with holes in their middles, and digressions going everywhere about them around the themes of memory, love and loss. Is it a novel? I don't care. It made me think, chuckle, and cry. It was beautiful. #reading
