Incredibly cute. I'm not a big fan of pink, but the cherry blossoms are great.

Worth it for the 2 Bono Songs and the 2 Secret Machines songs alone, but I'm also really fond of several of the others.

This game reminds me somewhat of SimEarth, and that's not too surprising considering it's the creation of Will Wright, the brain behind all of the Sim games (The Sims, SimEarth, SimCity, etc).

A political sim game. This seems a lot like the presidential campaign game I have, but much more customizable and with way more interactions and features.

I've seen this game at Target a lot, and I always wish I had the money to buy it. It just kind of fascinates me.

It needs to be played online for maximum enjoyment, but character building has always been my favorite part of any game, and this one has more options than most.

Seems to be a pretty standard Fantasy RPG sort of game, but it's just stunning.

A Myst style game.

A civilization meets Risk type of game.

A brand new version of Sim City with more options and way more features and functions. I'd love to have this.

One of my very favorite writing magazines.

A great magazine about books, perfect for making my reading list entirely too long.

I miss my Sojourners subscription.

This is a fabulous magazine, and if someone gives it as a gift they'll donate 100% of the profit to charity (and you get to choose from a variety of charities all of which look pretty good to me, though Room to Read is probably my favorite of these).

Lovely notecards with art from one of my favorite ever books.

These are truly gorgeous.

A variation on another entry. This one has a few features I really like.

I've always liked this idea, but never got around to doing it. Maybe having a journal specifically for such a thing would help.

I'm fascinated, and while I'm not much of a sketcher, there are times when unlined paper would come in handy.

And again with the leather and paper.

Leather and paper, how could I resist.

These are some of the nicer journals I know of, and here they are in a nifty set of three.

So, I'm sticking journals and pens into stationery because that's what we called the dept. at Wal-Mart. Love this one.

So beautiful and again with the notecards
