Haribo Teeth



I'm just saying--these things are awesome.

I like

This blog.

Crocheting and cat pictures!


Purr.

It's a known fact



































Bears like to climb trees.

The last thing I want to do

Is discourage cinematic interpretations of eighteenth-century satirical novels.

However.


I do not enjoy Jack Black's crotch right outside my bedroom window.

Truck door


Written by a human.

Bananagrams



A powerful new force in my life.

Sunday morning






Contender


Worst company name ever?

Wanting



































This hat.

Don't you love the color of the pompom?

Seasonal change

Well, we all know the signs of fall.

This means winter is here:


I got out the giant duvet!!!!

It's like sleeping in a big, soft, warm snowbank.

The good old hockey game!


New Jersey Devils versus Montreal Canadiens.


(Me versus hotdawg n fries!)

Made

Pumpkin pie.

The first pie crust was hard as a rock. But then I bought leaf lard and tried again! And it was delishus.

Thank you, whoever left these plastic bags in my bike basket

We will use them for the recycling.

Man


I have to rein in this "situation" at work.

Two pictures


Best website on the entire internet


This one!

Shout-out to Ms. Whidden for bringing this to my attention via Facebook.com.

Noticed

This pencil is made of plastic.


I found it in my collection. (I use them to do my Latin homework.)

I have learned that the plastic pencil was produced through an extrusion process patented by Empire Pencil Company (now Berol), which has been affiliated with Eagle Pencils since 1969 (when the former acquired the latter).

New acquaintance


I met her yesterday in a store nearby.


Fun facts: her name is Crazy, and she is pregnant.

Found tonight in a "free" pile


I will hang it in my S&M dungeon.

I made these


A very easy variation on biskwits that I made up outta my head (I watched my mom make something similar on many Sunday mornings). So delicious, especially when you have walnuts and raisins left over from the baked apples you made a couple days earlier!

(Remember when I found that bakeware on the street?)

wAAAAAHHH!

My sister's friend got a kitten! It is French Canadian, and it is a "roux" named Kiroux.


It was born on a farm. The farmer said it was ten weeks old, but really it is only about six weeks old and it doesn't know how to clean its fur, so they have to teach it how with a lil towel. Also they can't tell if it's a boy or a girl yet!


The farmer delivered it my sister's friend's apartment in Longueuil. He was wearing overalls and carrying Kiroux in his hand and the kitten was the same size as his big farmer thumb! (At least--in my imagination.)


Anyhoo.


I want a kitten REAL BAD.

Sigh

Remember my "cardboard problem"?

Well, I have new, similar issue.

Greg ordered some chemicals for printmaking and had them delivered to my office. He picked up the bottles, but left the box behind.

And I can't make up my mind to throw it away. Because, look!


SHREDDED PAPER!

You could totally make something with that. Or stuff something with it. And look at the nice colors.



So now I have a box in my office.

Found


A large bolt.

(I learned from Greg that it is a bolt because it is straight; if it were tapered it would be a screw.)

Whole Foods

Something is not right here...



It took me a surprisingly long time to figure out what it was.

Uncharacteristic snack

I really don't eat sliced meat, and nor I am a big fan of mayonnaise on toast.

HOWEVER.

I made this the other day:


Then this happened:


And, man, it was good.

Bitchin'


Flames.



Drawn with a Sharpie.

Shortbread


Why is it shaped like a piece of pie?

(Not that I'm complaining.)

Now I want to make this dress



It's Rachel Comey but I've only seen it on eBay; it must be from a previous season.

It's basically this but more restrained and in the shape of a dress. (It's knitted but I would crochet it.)

Recently found

On a concrete wall in front of a house in my neighborhood, these two:



Cyborg 009 (it's a about a team of super robots exiled in outer space by the evil scientest who built them!) was surprisingly absorbing--I almost missed my stop while reading it on the subway. But it messed up my brain. I got used to reading back to front, left to right.

Awesome to find Primo Levi's Surviving Auschwitz (originally published in English as If This Is a Man), as I haven't read it.

And in a box by the curb:



La ciencia!

I love seeing a kid get excited about cardboard:



Awesome finds all 'round I'd say.
