Ni Hao! Konnichiwa! Namaste! Please welcome our new scribe, Lara Vardhana! Most of you already know Lara from her previous life as Lalita Ashoka, one of the Orient's fabulous first scribes. We are honoured to work and play with such a warm, friendly, talented lady. Be sure to drop by her home and say hello. She's altogether lovely ~ a Gem of the Orient! Sayonara! Zài jiàn! Ta-ta! Now it's time to bid a fond farewell to our beloved Lady of Kimono, Shibori Murasaka, who has retired from her scribal duties after two years of giving so much of herself to the Orient. We know she deserves a rest, but she will be missed! Fortunately, many of our neighbourhoods and events are decorated with mementos of her artistic talent; and she can still be found serving tea on her Xi Hu estate and decorating her kimono shop in Kyobashi. ![]() When you have a moment, visit Shibori's homesite and leave a little thank you note on her scroll. ~Jia Li ~ card designed by Lara |
