My little boy's sudden obsession with Iron Man


My 2-year-old son, Alonso, wears Iron Man pants, Iron Man footwear and Iron Man shirt by day. By night, he wears Iron Man pajamas. He drinks from an Iron Man cup and eats from an Iron Man plate. It's easy getting him dressed, and he's easy to spot in a crowd.



Alonso wants nothing more than a rowdy good guy/bad guy brawl that ends with a huge pile of action figures on the floor. While I'm still not thrilled about the damage that's being done to our furniture—and on the days that he decides I'm a bad guy, to my body—as long as he doesn't trip over his own feet and fall down, we will all enjoy seeing a miniature Tony Stark running around the house. Anyway, here's some music.

Hand-Painted Bags That Tell Your Story

  Most bags today look like they were produced by bored machines in a dimly lit factory. You can walk into any mall and find rows of identical leather (or “leather-like”) things, all claiming to express individuality. Ironically, though, they all look exactly the same. Then there’s Abby Verano . Her bags are not mere accessories; they’re declarations. Each one is hand-painted, touched by an actual human being with an imagination. Abby doesn’t just sell you something to put your wallet and smartphone in; she sells you a story, a vision, a little revolt against the tyranny of sameness.  Her tools are simple — brushes, acrylic paint, bags made from pandan leaves, and creativity. No duplicates. No clones. Just one-of-a-kind art pieces you can carry.
