A week or so ago, reader Megan sent me an email asking me if I had any ideas for interesting ways to wrap a bunch of guitar picks she had purchased for her boyfriend's birthday (rather than, you know, just tossing them in a little box).

Ars Nova Show Feat. Arms, Thunder & Lightning
Both Arms and Thunder & Lightning are helmed by former bandmates of Kendrick's (and good friends of ours), so for your Friday listening pleasure, here are links to a personal favorite from each band:
Camping On My Mind
I want to go camping SO. BAD.
I'm pretty sure that it's not a great idea - hard, flat surfaces aren't sitting well with me lately - but I may give it a shot anyway, because I love spending a couple of evenings eating hamburgers in the woods so much that it may be worth a little back pain.
Now, I'm quite specific about the kind of camping I like, and the kinds of stuff I like to bring. For example, I prefer the presence of a relatively nearby bathroom to the totally rural thing, and insist upon the close proximity of a water source that offers rafting and tubing (we like the Delaware Water Gap for these reasons).
Philosophy “Welcome, Baby” Gift Set
I mean: aww. I received this set as a present recently...and it's just so sweet, and such a lovely gesture for a mama-to-be (or anyone, really).
Contains four products especially for new moms: 2 oz Purity Made Simple, 1 oz Hope In A Jar, 2 oz Pure Grace Foaming Bath & Shower Cream; 2 oz Pure Grace Body Lotion.
