Maira Kalman

This is a favorite book of mine since long ago.
Maira Kalman is ever so brilliant over and over.         
And now a new favorite,
written by Michael Pollan and
illustrated by  Maira Kalman.

lazy suz

 We love to use our lazy susan's (from IKEA) at beehive..
 sometimes with watercolor paint, sometimes with crayons or colored pencils.
 This time we used markers and boy do they make me smile.

My friend Susanna showed me this colorful tidbit, 
I always love love love it, and the best part is...  kids love it even more.
