  3. Happy Birthday and have a great time on the West Coast! I am headed there too for the weekend! Portland, Eugene, and wedding on a farm in between! I’ll be 29 in a few months as well. I’m looking forward to it, actually. Kind of like getting to the edge of a canyon and preparing oneself for the inevitable leap over into…the 30’s.

  10. I think that bird vase is positively marvelous. Is there any way to find out where it came from?

    And… of course… a much-belated happy birthday!

  11. hi rebecca,
    sorry for not getting back to you sooner! my brother-in-law doesn’t remember the name of the shop : (
    he said it was a little Japanese shop in LA, that was listed in the shopping guide in Domino. but i don’t have that issue… if i come across it i will let you know!

  12. No problem, I really appreciate it! I have all the issues of Domino, and I always enjoy a bit of a detective job. Plus I’m planning a trip to LA in December, so that’s perfect. Thanks again!

  13. I was able to find the bird vase right away in Domino, available at Tortoise Life in Venice. And now I have one sitting on my coffee table… thank you so much!
