I've been drooling over Tumbleweed tiny houses for a few years now, and this firetruck guest house reminded me of them--tiny and portable. I don't think I'd actually want a house on wheels, but I like small spaces and the minimalism they require.
I've also been playing with floor-plans for kids' rooms, just for kicks. I think this double bunk setup is awesome.
All Women are Real Women. This struck a cord with me, since I've been bulking up a tiny bit from going to the gym pretty regularly since February. This is the first time my body has changed in a noticeable way since puberty, and it's made me a little self-conscious. Plus, I've been getting sugar cravings which probably just means I need to eat more real food to make up for the gym, but still, it makes me think of my body in ways that come with a lot of unwanted societal baggage (I should be this way or that way). But no matter what, I'm a real woman and I'm happy with myself.
Speaking of sweets, I made a lemon curd this weekend to go with a white cake. The cake was okay, but the curd was (and is) excellent. (Half a spoon curd + half a spoon mascarpone = a sliver of heaven.) And then speaking of mascarpone, I want to try making these poached pears.
Vertical gardening: ikea solutions (I have three askers in my kitchen with plants in them), Patrick Blanc (who seems like a marvelously silly man), air plants, hanging terrariums, and many things on this site.
Lastly, a pretty wind map.
