A week ago was my birthday (May 14), and I spent it hunting for morel mushrooms. Here's the successful (and delicious) result!
The next day I went to New York for six days for the Stationary Show, which while fun, was sort of the opposite of the morel hunt... very slim pickins. I'd be surprised if that show lasts another two years. My impression is that people are corresponding more than ever, but stationary no longer has anything to do with it. Nowadays, it's all happening on computers and cell phones.
