Merry Christmas!

A Strange Holiday but All The Same:

Honestly, I don’t understand this holiday very well. I’ve asked that it be explained several times now, and I still don’t quite get it. Anything burned in effigy seems more like a protest than a party to me, but that may just be my American roots showing. I suppose it is the same as Dia De Los Muertos—if can sound morbid if not explained in context.
Anyways, I hope everyone in the UK has a great and safe bonfire, and have a bite of parkin for me!

Better late than never!

My internet was down this weekend, so I'm only now getting the chance to say this. In my own time zone, we still have an hour left in the day, so for these last 56 minutes:

Juliettia!

Here is a special bloggy e-card for a very special and inspiring person. I hope she likes it! :D
If you also have a Halloweeny birthday: Happy Birthday to you, too!

Happy World Post Day!

I woke up this morning to the notification from @PostCrossing that today is World Post Day!


I poked around USPS.com but didn't see any highlights. I celebrated by writing up a few more postcards.
How does your country celebrate?

It happens once a year.

Sent Postcards

This is going to be a bit of a photo dump, but at least we are going to be caught up with the postcards recently sent!

Welcome to Monkeys Love Mail!

And, we're off!

Thanks for checking out my new blog, Monkeys Love Mail. The idea struck me like lightning: why not combine my two favorite hobbies--drawing monkeys and posting cards--into one fun project? Thus began MLM.

If you like my monkeys or the postal arts, I hope you find something you like here. If you have any questions for me, feel free to ask! And most importantly:
Happy Posting!
