And once again, I see how much health insurance costs in the U.S. and I am very, very glad I live in Australia. Our cost: $207.75 per month for the pair of us. Includes a high level of Extras cover (dental, optical, orthotics, etc).

“Nazis, needlework and my dad.” This is a fascinating article about a British officer to cross-stitched while held in a POW camp in WW2 and managed to include subversive, coded messages into the design. His son is also a stitcher and has a few pieces on exhibit at the V&A in London. You can see his dad’s famous sampler here.
