Random Goodies Collection

Goody bag time, blog style!

1. Found another scarf:


Mugisha, which means "blessing" in Kinyarwanda, scarf, $38, made by a young group of refugee women in Kenya. Read more here. The nonprofit behind this, Heshima Kenya, is pretty gahmazing.

2. Aand... Bracelets made of PVC pipe:


They're crafted by the Himba, an indigenous people of Namibia who actually started making these bracelets to add flair to their traditional garb while using up otherwise-junked PVC pipe ... and now you can snag your own (and find the whole story) on Ethical Ocean for only $15.52.

3. Final surprise ... A couple Billabong Pipe Masters shots, taken by moi, on the second day of the competition:


(John John Florence there with the board -- he ended up winning the Triple Crown.)


(My lovely friend Chels, who accompanied me.)


(Unknown surfer takes flight.)

Happy Wednesday all, wishing you plenty of jingles and stuff.
