Twelve years ago I found this basket at a trash & treasure market and it brought me much much joy. It was simple, practical, could stand up on its own and wouldn't bang against my legs when I hooked it onto the handle bars of my bike.
When I carried my basket I felt happy. And when I carried it, I noticed so many others happy and carrying their baskets. And so I made up 100 of these cards to give out to fellow happy basket carriers.
My mum wanted to be a member so bad that she bought herself a picnic basket so I would give her a card that she then displayed proudly in a frame.
It was a small gesture, but it meant the world to me.
Congratulations goes out to my mum today! As she has just found out that her book, Alzheimer's: A Love Story, has been accepted for publication by Scribe.
You are an inspiring human being, Mamman. Because of your actions and your words.

Congratulations to Meg's mom!
You got it wrong, Meg, I'm sorry. I was not being a good mother - I was after a piece of your truly original art.
