Ready for the Friday Caption Contest (happening now on Facebook)?!? Come on over to join the fun. Winners will be announced Monday.
Tiki Travel Tips no. 1 (a and b)! 1a -Buy your London-Paris Eurostar tickets in advance. They are embarrassingly expensive at the last minute. It is cheaper, but less charming, to fly. Cheapest option yet is a bus/ferry to Calais/bus option. The last is almost free, but do factor in the likelihood of vomiting your way across the Channel. Many a breakfast will end as fish food on that route. (If you are young and vomiting is a normal,though regrettable, part of a Saturday morning, take the cheap seats.) 1b. If you are on Eurostar, don't miss the Marks and Sparks Simply Food just across from the check-in. There is candy in souvenir tins to buy for everyone you holiday to forget. And for yourself, grab a charming cold beverage. The second Pimm's was warm by the time I'd gotten to my hotel in Paris, but the idea of it fortified me in the endless cattle pen taxi line at Gare Du Nord. I am very certain in hindsight that the metro would have been the better option.
Pssst. All four of these No All Day drawings are now available as FREE, downloadable postcards.
Yes, we said FREE. Just sign up for Tiki Papier mailing list and we’ll send you the link.
Still working on my Mother's Day card. Even if it's not done before next year, I somehow doubt it will be outdated. If there is anything you'd like to give your Mom for Mother's Day, let me know in the comments. I've got: Universal prenatal care; A halt to rising maternal mortality; Sensible postnatal advice; Twelve months parental leave; Sliding scale 24hr childcare; A fair division of domestic labor that does not foist the necessary work of housewives onto undocumented workers and underpaid women of color; Valued for your knowledge rather than your appearance or, failing that, at least not condemned for your vanity; A progressive public education system that works to address the systemic inequality faced by previous generations; Inclusive social spaces where children and the elderly are welcome, so as a caregiver, you are not additionally burdened by loneliness and alienation; Job security, so taking time to care for your family doesn’t keep you from providing for them; A functioning civil court system which, in the absence of personal responsibility, ensures a child is equitably supported by both parents; Restorative justice; Healing; Compassion; Solidarity Let me know what I overlooked.
