Karen and I are thinking about taking a quick trip to Mexico City to goof off for a weekend and eat like a pig.  I love Mexico, and it occurred to me that one of the things I love (aside from the people) is how many still make things by hand there, be it food or art or goods, I am always amazed at the quality and hard work put into the craft in Mexico. I really respect that, and thought I would show an image along those lines of an artist in Oaxaca carving a beautiful wood “alebriijes.”
