Linked v. 2

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Waking up kinda late, saying goodbye to your nice warm bed where you can still see an imprint of your once snuggled resting body and stumbling out the door to work without giving your car any time to warm up or giving yourself any time to scrape down the frost on the windows. This trick (a mixture of 2/3 Vinegar 1/3 water in a spray bottle) will help expedite your winter morning routine. (Watch what you can do with cooking spray and hand sanitizer!)

How cool is this vase shelf? Fresh cut flowers make any gloomy day brighter. Even regular days.

Manual Photography Cheat Sheet. Photo 101 made really simple.

Opposite of cheating, how to recreate instagram filters using real cameras and real film. (i.e. real work.)

No Bake Oreo Truffles. whaaaaat!

You wouldn't think so at this point, but i've never had much of a sweet tooth. But it's winter, and it's easy, and it has to be god damn delicious. Nutella Hot Chocolate. Add marshmallows (just guessin')

Gracious Rain's sweet acorns went over so well with my family on Thanksgiving! I made extra and ate them for days.

Want. Want. Want. I'm only shopping Ruche for undergarments from now on. Or any garments. Such beautiful stuff.

Can I live here?

And finally, dancing Gandhi! What a beautiful human.

it's friday night, and my plans include straightening up, transferring my every day luggage into my new backpack, and catching up on blog posts. tonight i'll be starting the girl with the dragon tattoo by stieg larsson. i've been on the fence about it, but this trailer sold me. pretty sure i'm in for 644 pages of awesome. but for right now, i want to share with you some interesting little things i've been seeing around the interwebs.

if you're like me, and outside sounds like crickets and rain soothe you like nothing else, click here.

this is a hilarious exchange of emails. i feel badly for the woman initiating the conversation, my heart goes out to her and her predicament, but some people are just so witty that it kills me.

street art captivates me. interactive street art with a purpose, even more so.

my boyfriend just clued me into these sweet grips for the handlebars on my bike. cult's ode to vans.

lane nelson has apparently illustrated the story of my life.

enjoy your weekend! :)
