We are a LEGO fam. If you want a. Inside view of working at LEGO headquarters I like this book called The Year of Living Danishly. It’s not all LEGO (authors husband works there) but it has some great glimpses into LEGO corporate culture.

Will definitely check it out. A couple of years ago I watched an interview with an American couple who went to work there- he as a designer and wife in marketing. The two things I recall were that wherever you sat on a couch or bench in one of the more public spaces there was a bucket of random pieces next to it. The other was about how meetings always begin: the team gathers around the table and everyone is given a dozen or so pieces and a couple of minutes to assemble something before the meeting begins. Kind of a centering process. How cool is that!

Great column today - just what I needed to get my mind off of the daily deluge of the latest dastardly acts from Trump compounded by the introduction of his very annoying press secretary!

Bald-faced liar right out of the gate! In answer to a question about whether she'd be truthful. PROMINENT cross on her necklace. Gahhhhhh

The first picture - your creation from Lego's - looks like a toast to imagination and happiness.
