Product placement

We are grateful to our friend Colin for drawing our attention to the existence (disbelieved by us at first) of Lego kits that allow you to build your very own Guggenheim Museum and Fallingwater. We have, almost literally, a house full of Lego pieces, and we are married to an architect, so they have an obvious attraction. Nevertheless, there is something not quite right about the results, at least as depicted on the box. It may be that Lego is just not a good medium for Frank Lloyd Wright. Still, full marks to everyone involved.

On the other hand, we could easily be seen dead wearing one of these. Richard McGuire, he is the man.
