My one-on-one consulting "go" kit, including basic supplies clients might need but haven't purchased. (It happens - the people I work with are very busy.) Includes labeler, filing basics, stacking shelves, desktop organizer, etc.

A diorama by 7 year old daughter created to show the stressful effects of not being productive! You can't see them, but inside are dozens of small pieces of cut-up "paper" clutter.
Another "fruits of my labor" reward, this time a yummy chocolate order, courtesy of the folks at http://www.chocosphere.com/ . All used solely for creating drinking chocolate in the European style.
