The Year in Review

While lots of things are always happening at the Mercuriosity Shop, here are some of the highlights of the previous year (in case you missed them).

Of course, I started the year with a little something about the passage of time, along with a photograph I’m quite proud of. This is the story of Chronos, Father of Time.

We also got a visit from French author and illustrator Frederic Clement who left us with a smile.

Photographer Chip Simons showed up in time for March with his hares.

While ruminating about a fog, I accidentally wrote this little dissertation. I may be a fogologist after all.

We all got a huge dose of Faerie Month, which ended with the death of a sabotaging Gremlin.

I got to see my favorite author/illustrator Maurice Sendak speak, and then I ran off to New Orleans for a while.

And another bit of lovely writing (if I do say so myself) about the end of summer.

Some troubadours were lost, and some mermaids were saved in September.

Santa wrote another letter to my niece.

And we ended where we started—with time.

So who knows what this year may bring, but I hope that we may continue to visit here, in the Mercuriosity Shop.
