a panda pail (not pale)

this was a christmas gift acquired for me by my mother on her visit to smithsonian's national zoo which is home to three giant pandas. ever since then it has successfully and ecologically-soundly held my lunch every working day (of which there are quite a lot).

a little top hat, full of lotion

if only it wasn't mysterious, crusty, lotion, i would refill it with my own.
this little guy was a gift from my co-panda-eer, devora, who found him.
he is pretty cute & forlorn looking :)

red pandas reproduce!

jason brings our attention to the following good news:

"Rare red pandas welcome triplet babies
Cubs are a big deal; only five were born in North America in 2008

Three cheers for Shan Tou and Yukiko! The rare red panda couple are the proud parents of triplets born at the Red River Zoo in Fargo, N.D., on June 11.
And the still-to-be-named panda babies are quite the big deal. "The last time triplets were born in North America was 10 years [ago]," the zoo's animal keeper, Marcy Thompson, tells PEOPLE Pets, adding that last year the pair had twins — two of the five red pandas born in all of North America in 2008.
Shan Tou may look like a cuddly raccoon, but she and her mate are actually a unique species found in the Himalayan mountains of India, Nepal, Burma and China. Red pandas typically have one or two cubs, says Thompson, so they were thrilled when three cream-colored balls of fluff arrived just before Father's Day. (Their reddish-brown fur will fully grow in when they're around 2 months old.)
