photographer Jon Nordstrøm's book, Danish Tattooing, documents danish tattoos over the last 100+ years. i would love to get my hands on a copy of this someday.

Alice my dear,
Good timing for this posting - I have a tattooing question, and it concerns you specifically. I'm interested in beets - yes, beets - in a style similar to the kale you printed on those shirts of ours back in the day (I still get compliments on that shirt every time I wear it, by the way). Sort of wood blocky, detailed, beautiful. There's a place on my arm that is dying for that image. Let me know what you think, about that and everything else. I think about you more often than I show it. Take care, erin.
