Photo of the Day: Monsieur Manatee
After seeing VerySmallAnna's cute paintings of animals and food, I knew I had to make a request. A week later, Monsieur Manatee was born. This red beret-clad manatee likes to nosh on crusty baguettes and bags of treats from Pierre Hermé—just like me!
Thanks so much to Anna for making my office space a little bit cuter. If you commission a painting from her, I'd love to see what you end up with.

That's adorable. Are you going to get a bottle of Mad Manatee beer to display in your office? Have you had a chance to pick up the book Naked Came the Manatee? I think you would love Booger the manatee and his swimming companion, a 102 year old grandmother environmentalist!

People say Manatee tastes like chicken I say they are wrong to say that . I say pork shoulder , a bit more greasey but you got to cook it low and slow . Plenty of beer must be consumed as it takes quite a crowd to get it out of the water and on to the hot coals . jfitz

...And here I go again, scrambling to restock! If only painting and listing them were as fast as thinking up and drawing them!
