Wedding Clogs?

These might just be the shoes.

Edit: On further inspection they appear to be art pieces, not available for sale.

The Alien Stamen Penis is dead! Long live the, er, not so much.

I can't articulate why, but when I put together the design for this site I was dead set upon using a calla lily for the header. Chiara had made the very sensible suggestion that the images all be photos one of us had taken. There was one calla lily that I could make work, but when it was cropped down into the header I thought it looked rather unseemly, but I figured it was my mind in the gutter.

When Kate echoed that opinion, I knew I had the excuse I’d wanted needed to revisit the design elements, which had come to haunt and mock me as I was finishing up the site design.

Some of you with sick minds may want to point out that I’ve just traded one end of the spectrum for the other. To those people I say: “Long live the field of engorged, alien labia!”

(seriously, we’re talking about plant sex organs, of course there's some resemblance.)
