December 2025, Science Museum of Minnesota in St. Paul, MN. There was a big ado that evening about hockey, pretty much everywhere we went even after the museum visit was abuzz with hockey, and apparently this dinosaur skeleton was ready to hit the ice.

The first English woman to print books under her own name!

At our open house last week, we featured several items for Women's History Month, including this 1540 printing of Magna Carta. Elisabeth (Pickering) Redman (1510-1562) was married to Robert Redman, a printer of law books in London. This copy was printed after his death and under Elisabeth's name, "imprinted at London in Fleet Street..at the sign of the George next to Saint Dunston's church" according to the colophon.

Thirteen of Robert Redman's books were printed within nine months of his death, and ten besides this one were under Elisabeth's name.

I welcomed Sox (aka Jeeves) into our home 3 1/2 months ago. He adjusted well and is the sweetest boy. He loves lap cuddles and lots of attention ❤️. He adjusted well to our senior female resident cat. Our resident cat is still adjusting, but great progress has been made. He is a happy, healthy boy! — Renee
