Brother Mort liked the peace and solitude of his herb garden but even so a visit from Sister Dot and her latest tranche of dirty jokes rarely went unappreciated

got a fancy pigment-based printer for making higher quality stickers (and prints) with. celebrated by spending most of the weekend printing and cutting new designs. gonna try and get them up on the store next weekend
