Design is Important

Seen in the window of Portland Design Within Reach. I would even go so far to add that “sustainable design is important because environmental chaos is hard.” Just take the recent ecotopia proposal in Gothenburg as an example.

There is a very good chance that the sourdough focaccia recipe from @modernbaker might be life changing. #sourdough #wildyeast #slowfood #ModernBaker

The hell hole that is the K-cup aisle. Convenience comes at a cost. And it tastes bad too. #kcups #singleuse #consumerism

Book baby's first #coffeeoutside! @semi_rad and I are welcoming our new book Best Served Wild from @falcon.guides into the world today. It's full of fun recipes like Making Your Own Granola Isn't Rocket Science and Seven-Can Chili for Six People and hilarious essays like Knife, Fork, Spork or Spoon? A Backcountry Dilemma, Solved. You are sure to feel very #blessed if you buy this book, not to mention it will certainly help you #liveauthentic. To celebrate I'm giving away a copy AND two of these limited edition "I Like My Coffee Outside" @miir coffee mugs, featuring a papercut I made. Because why not enjoy coffee and/or food outside with a friend? All you have to do is tag someone you want to make an outdoor meal for. (Thanks to hand model @twymer for expertly pouring) ☕️🏕🍩#bestservedwild .

Spent the weekend creating art instead of looking at the news, and then when I did look at the news, it felt even more important than ever to create art. Art that speaks to people, to art that takes a stand, art that shows love and compassion, are that reminds us to be human, art that highlights what we have to lose, art that highlights what we have to celebrate. I've been looking at wildfire haze for weeks, paired with the proverbial blaze of hatred. It came out in ink on paper. Whatever your art is, I hope you make some of it this coming week. I hope that you speak out against bigotry, racism, violence and hatred. I hope that you create instead of consume. I hope that you show radical love. .

Love sending off prints to new homes! (A few Forest Fika prints still left on annabrones.bigcartel.com - and they are printed with ink made from upcycled coffee grounds by @coffeeprinted ☕️ ❤️) .
