A Small Press Life: Books. Art. Writing. Life. Tea. 
Can’t see the images unfortunately, but can relate – notebooks in the hundreds, pencils by the thousands and peace and quiet are all I ask. Oh, and coffee.

Change tea for coffee and I am right there with you. I collect vintage Penguin Books and nearly anything else PB related, so I was extra thrilled to receive these gifts from my mom (the photos are visible in the post, I swear).

Love the cover of Penguin by Design. SO clever – never woulda thought of it.
But THOSE PENCILS! How great are those!

The cover is really striking and clever! My mom knows me well. She bought me all of my PB goodies and several other book-related gifts as well. Those pencils are amazing. I don’t want to sharpen them.

Sharpening the pencils would be a slippery slope. They’re never the same after.

Ha, I know! I don’t think I will be able to bring myself to do that.
