- The most amazing umbrella ever.
- Doe Deere shares 11 ways to go green & save money. Some ideas I have wholeheartedly embrace already. Others sound a bit too much for me. Showering only every three days? I think I’ll stick to my four minute shower timer!
- I am in love with this photo shoot & I don’t know why. Is it the colours? Is it the adorable model? Could it be the wacky glasses? Who cares! It rocks my socks!
- Ayomeday shares some really wonderful journalling ideas. I like the bit about writing letters - I’ve definitely been inspired!
- For a bout of nostalgic national pride I recommend You Know You’re Australian If…
- Dark Roasted Blend share some kooky sheet music. Is it just me, or would some of these make awesome T-shirt designs?
- Like an online identikit but way more fun. Face Builder lets you construct fictional (or perhaps real) faces & upload them to the rogues gallery. Why not invent a few imaginary friends?

- Matte nail polish. Why didn’t someone think of this sooner? I want I want!

For the last time, he felt the primal joy of flight; for the first, the indescribable feeling of ascending toward his dream—a place far away from piercing screeches and crowded caves, stretching forever into fathomless blackness.

- If you live in the UK you can get a free box of stuff!
- I used to think that Vagina Pagina was for women who were super-comfortable discussing their lady bits. You know, happy (but afflicted) “I heart my vagina” types. Apparently I was wrong. We’re all a little uncomfortable or even resentful of our functions sometimes & the comments are hilarious!
- & while on the subject, behold the scariest tampon advertisement ever. I mean it!
- These artful bras sure are creative. Not necessarily wearable though. I do like support your favourite boob however!
