These are a few of my favorite things...

Mary Azarian is an artist whose work I fell in love with while living and working in Vermont. I think if her work quite often, so I thought I would share some with you.

I love the relatively new main branch of the Salt Lake City public library. It is what most libraries should aspire to. I love how busy and active this library is, in addition to how striking it is.

Community gardens....I love community gardens in general. These are two which are near and dear to my heart - Wasatch Community Garden (Utah) and Oakhurst Community Garden (Georgia.)

Another goodie in the Coomunity Food Co-Op in Bozeman, MT. Check it out here, or better yet stop by yourself.
