The Sama Gazette website will be back on April 1, 2020!

After a (way too) long hiatus, we are very glad to announce The Sama Gazette website will be soon back online! Many readers who were missing their dose of ‘Sama frenchness‘ have been following us on Twitter @SamaGazette for a long time and kept asking when our website would be updated again. You can stop messaging us and sending emails (only on this very specific matter) because the answer is… next month! Starting in April, the Sama ...

Easter Egg Hunt: We found a Gary Baseman Egg!

Last year Easter Egg Hunt was all about finding Max Dana’s news drawing, hidden on the home page of the Sama Gazette. But this year it wasn’t about an ‘Easter Sama Hunt’, it ended with something totally new, an ‘Easter Baseman Egg’! Max is a big fan of art toys and she has quite an impressive collection of them. So when she said this year the hunt would be about ‘toys eggs’ we were wondering what this hunt ...

The whole package is available directly on this page or from the top right sidebar, you only have to click on the black rectangular button to access the ‘Sama Goodies’ page. We made ...


Easter Sama Hunt: find Max Dana’s new drawing!

Whether you are into religious celebrations or not, Easter is fun (eating chocolate -milk, dark, semisweet, bittersweet, unsweetened…). Easter egg Sama hunt even more. So we decided to hide an Easter Sama on the Sama Gazette. If you find it, you will have a glimpse at a never-before-seen drawing by Max Dana, photographed from her very own Moleskine she mentioned on her blog: My Moleskine, Cary Grant, some Asti Spumante and a Goldorus. Dear Sama ...
