Fun video of the week: You've probably all seen the Gangnam Style music video that's been making the rounds of the internet world. Well, a little while ago Samsung (a Korean-based company, remember) had an internal team-building competition to see which Samsung branch...
Sunday Confessions
Linking up with Alyx. 1. Sometimes I will bookmark an item in a 'Shopping' folder in my bookmarks instead of pinning to Pinterest because I don't want anyone else to snatch it up before I can. 2. I'm really glad Elena got eliminated from Project Runway. She was...
Five Things Friday
1. La Fresh Eco Beauty Acetone-Free Nail Polish Remover. Yeah, quite a mouthful, huh? I got a sample of these in my latest Birchbox. The directions said simply "Gently press the pad into each nail, and watch your chipped polish dissolve". I was skeptical. The pad is...

Bits & Pieces
1. It's October, which means new sponsors (check them out in the sidebar) and lots of awesome things but mostly: it's my birthday month! It should be good times here on the blog. I sat down with my planner yesterday and plotted out some fun stuff, and started thinking...

Fun video of the week: This is what happens when a seagull steals your videocamera while you’re trying to film a sunset. Chelsea's recipe for banana bread looks yummy. So do Kim's recipes for gluten-free cheesecake and adult grilled cheese. Some really nifty...
30 Days of Lists: Fictional Places I’d Like to Live
My choices for today's 30 Days of Lists prompt. I quite liked this topic! I don't have a pretty picture of a fancy notebook (since I'm not keeping one), but I did find some maps of said fictional places. 1. Terre d'Ange (Jacqueline Carey) 2. Dragaera (Steven...
Tuesday Treasure Trove
How to Nurture Your Jane Austen Obsession. I kind of want the dish towel, of all things. 🙂 Why It's Ok to Stay In Tonight. Not that I needed any more justification, but several of these are spot-on for me (the second, and the last two). A really scary true story...
100 Foods to Try Before You Die
Technically this should bee called 100 Foods & Drinks, since it has several beverages on it, but whatever. A friend had this on Facebook, and I was interested to see how many I had already eaten. (There may have been some intensive Googling, since I didn't even know...
