Frankincense, $4 per oz.
Myrrh, $5.60 per oz.
Gold, $411.20 per oz.
Value of celebrating the holidays with friends and family: priceless.

Tyler and I independently chose images for today and we both chose paintings by the northern Italian painter (c.1500), Andrea Mantegna!

Here is my pick, Adoration of the Magi, followed by Tyler’s pick the Adoration of the Shepherds (click to expand either image).
