Illustrator Brooke Barker’s canine just isn’t the jumpiest or the lickiest canine round, however, as Brooke says, “the very best issues don’t must be the jumpiest or the lickiest.”
One of the best issues don’t must be the latest or the shiniest or the quickest, both. “I swear there are solely about 5 good ballpoint pens on the earth and so they’re all outdated,” Brooke wrote this week in her e-newsletter, By no means Not Nervous. “And my favourite shirt is the shirt I received once I performed rec soccer in fourth grade.”
Though the very best issues don’t all the time look like the very best issues, you already know them whenever you see them. My most-cherished novels are outdated and dog-eared, and once I’m consuming alone, I beeline for a bowl of Cheerios.
And one among my favourite issues about our home is how our lounge home windows are lined with kids’s handprints.
What not-flashy issues do you treasure? The query makes me consider this Kate Baer poem, above. xoxo
P.S. In search of glimmers, and what’s your professional tip?
