Spring Cleaning!
'Course, it's really in the middle of summer, but perhaps the saying fits because once you finish cleaning, you feel as fresh and light as thought it really was spring!
The Internet held me captive all day yesterday, which was really awful (I had a lot of things to do!), but I found some very interesting websites! My mouse was running to the "Bookmark" tab every two seconds! The only problem with that is that all these saved pages become very... cluttered, very fast. Now I can't find anything at all. So! Annual book-mark cleansing time! As I go through and sort them I'll add a few of the coolest links to share with everyone. Tell me what you think of some of the sites! They can get really interesting!
You Grow Girl! - I *LOVE* this blog! I've been checking it obsessively all the time. We have enough space to host a good garden, but I've not gotten up that nerve yet. And for those of you who don't have space, Gayla Trail can tell you all about being an awesome container gardener. She has so much great advice and fun stories about being an urban gardener!
Lunch in a Box - I can't tell you how excited I was to stumble on this site!! All I EVER needed and wanted to know about making bento lunches - updated in a fun blog style! I can't wait to really dive in and read more... I want to try to eat bento lunches at school. Why that style? Because its cool (so sue me) and the push to combine style and color bring out healthier meals than many a packed lunch!
Ideal Bite - Simple, useful tips to living a greener life - delivered in a hip style that makes living green both a stylish and easy decision.
Organic Bamboo Fabric
Shirts of Bamboo - I want a bamboo shirt... so bad.... they feel awesome.
Bamboosa - More awesome bamboo products.
Mr. Lee Cat-Cam - A man put a camera on his cat's collar to see where he went everyday. It's actually really brilliant! I want to try it on Friday...
Digital Drawing Tool - I want one so bad. You can draw on your WALL. @__@ My kids will be so spoiled, without knowing it... not to mention this site, GeekAlerts, will be the place I shall find my gifts for Scott and my Dad for the next billion years... I love some of the things they link to, like the finger-print specific wedding bands and the pyramid clock that changes color and chimes instead of shoots loud numbers at you... Haha, the next book-mark is a link to the clock itself! Dreamtime Clock!
Marmalade Boy (Animé - Some episodes uploaded on Veoh!)
Latin Word List
Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories - Candy organized to look like a circuit board! I keep thinking of making these for Scott...
How to Grow Pineapple Tops Indoors - Hey, those seeds and things from the fruits you eat ARE still potential plants! ;)
Upside Down Tomatoes - Maximizing space and growing healthier tomatoes while you're at it!
Wildpansyflower's Flickr - I have no clue how I end up in random people's flickrs. I just do.
Untitled - One woman's battle with some chemically searing slippers on Wal-mart. Another reason why I avoid buying clothes there. :D
UltraGlass - Remember moodrings? How they'd change colors depending on your body heat? Well, how about a whole shower made outta that stuff?
AdamFrank - Absolutely gorgeous oil lamps by Adam Frank. I'd love to have one or two to light when my kids to go sleep, after telling them stories, someday... or to meditate next to. It looks perfect.
There really were so many more, but some of them didn't seem worthy of note. That was just organizing, too! When I go back through to sort everything further I'll come back and add more links. ;)
