My "Lucy Sez" CafePress store... for fun



For fun, I created a CafePress store called Lucy Sez.. with things my dog (Lucy) and I say to each other.

The new and exciting thing is.. the company I work for (Sellit.com) just partnered with CafePress to offer shopkeepers the ability to post their CafePress stores across the web. This means as a shopkeeper I can post my CafePress store into my blog, my myspace page, any website, and even let my friends and fans do the same. I don't need people to only come to my CafePress store url anymore, my store can be out there all over the internet where people already are congregating. All you have to do is click the "Share" button to post my store, it's sort of like sharing a YouTube video.

Office of the President-Elect: Change.gov

What a week. I'm still stunned, relieved, grateful, proud. Yay, Obama!

Of the many things on the agenda, the new site Change.gov lists:

The Obama-Biden comprehensive New Energy for America plan will:

  • Provide short-term relief to American families facing pain at the pump
  • Help create five million new jobs by strategically investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future.
  • Within 10 years save more oil than we currently import from the Middle East and Venezuela combined.
  • Put 1 million Plug-In Hybrid cars -- cars that can get up to 150 miles per gallon -- on the road by 2015, cars that we will work to make sure are built here in America.
  • Ensure 10 percent of our electricity comes from renewable sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025.
  • Implement an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050.
Please visit Change.gov! It's a comprehensive and thoughtful site about news, events, and annoucements during this Presidential Transition Project.

Eco Gift for Guys


I came across this poster yesterday and it reminded me of a good eco-friendly gadgety guy gift, the energy usage meter "Kill-A-Watt".

Cozy Bird-Dictator Palaces


Mussolini’s Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana

“Super Kingdom is an art installation with a difference: each of the pieces on show in King’s Wood, near Ashford in Kent, is a fully-functioning animal house. They just happen to be based on a selection of infamous dictators’ palaces…” read more at Creativereview.co.uk

Looks like the knitted art from a previous post! - Tree Cozy.

Budcozy Retail Location!

I'm trying a new venue for Budcozy... Ceiba Records and Fashion on Haight Street in San Francisco. Ceiba is an eclectic boutique of independent designers with styles that range from steam punk to wood nymph, and whatever falls in between. I have a hard time walking out empty handed.

Ceiba Records
1364 Haight St
(between Central Ave & Masonic Ave)
