No Shoes In the Office?

This picture is too much. A friend from Japan posted his business meeting on Facebook (not sure why) and I all I can look at are the slippers all the men are wearing. I know they don't allow shoes in the house, but when did they start enforcing slippers at the workplace? Personally, if I could sport slippers at the shop, I totally would!

Tacoma Art Museum

I recently stayed the night in Tacoma, WA just to get a Korean Body Scrub with
a girlfriend (I highly recommend the Olympus Spa if you ever visit Tacoma).

I fell in love with this quaint college town and was most impressed with
the Tacoma Art Museum. Tacoma is the birthplace of the
glass genius Dale Chihuly and the museum had a special exhibit of his work.
Here are some pics from my visit there.

Here is the Museum mascot at the entrance, Leroy,
which is made out of recycled cardboard and glue.
Behind Leroy is a big bowl where you put donations for the museum.

I've never seen silver done in such a way.
I was amazed with Jewelry designer Flora Book.
