Friday Funny

A group of talented film school students in Germany recently made a series of buzz-worthy animated shorts, each of which asks the question, "What if animals were round?" Enjoy!

Mid-Week Blues

Anyone else feeling the mid-week blahs? It would be so nice to stay at home and craft something like this Sharpie pen bowl today, but alas, I started a new job last week and duty calls. I have a love for all things with polka dots so this bowl really speaks to me, but this project could be replicated using other fun shapes (hearts, triangles, etc.). I also love that it utilizes Ikea dinnerware. Cheap and easy!

Caramel From a Crock Pot

Did you know you can make homemade caramel sauce with your crock pot? All you need is a can of condensed milk and water. That's it! Sounds deliciously simple, doesn't it? Head on over to A Geek in Glasses for the full set of super easy instructions.

Mixology Monday: Fizzing Lifting Drinks

Girli Chef has this fun recipe for making carbonated drinks inspired by the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The recipe itself is simple enough (sugar, water, club soda and a blood orange), but what makes this drink so fun is that you can make it with any squeezable fruit (oranges, lemons, limes, pineapples, cherries, etc.) and you can add a little alcohol for added fun. I'd suggest flavored vodka or light rum. It looks so refreshing!

Friday Funny

I think we've all wished for the use of a time machine at some point. If I could use one right now, I'd go back to the start of summer. (If you live in Seattle, you know why. Could it just be sunny for one day this winter, pretty please?)

On a much more positive note, the weekend is almost here! Come rain or shine, I'm going to make the most of it and I hope you do too.

Happy Friday, everyone!

Seems legit.
