Wednesday Hodge Podge

I came across this quote on Twitter today and absolutely love it. It really struck a chord with me and I think it would make a great print for a child's room.

"For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."

On a totally different note, I'm thrilled with some of the award results that came out this week. Garden & Gun, one of my favorite magazines, won the General Excellence award at the National Magazine Awards on Monday night. The magazine title might be a little unusual but it has some of the best photos and writing of any current print publication. Also on Monday night, Zingerman's Roadhouse chef Alex Young won the James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef: Great Lakes. After being nominated four previous times, I'm glad to see he finally won (and happy for an Ann Arbor chef to get some great publicity)! I've only been to Zingerman's Roadhouse once, but I can attest to how wonderful the food is. Here is an interview with Chef Young about his win.
