Shout out to the BigHelpfulBrother. He turns 70 today and I did not invite anyone to send him a card or envelope because he is in the midst of his Swedish Death Cleaning - and Oh.My.Gosh does he have some wonderful stuff to get rid of. Having a stack of beautiful mail would just frustrate him.
He sent me this link to a charming little video about the Forbes Pigment Collection at the Harvard Art Museums. Five minutes of coolness.
