I know this is a depressing example, but it really struck a chord. This postcard is from my recent web find called PostSecret. It's an ongoing art project where people send in anonymous postcards with their secrets. Most of them are really sad, but they also make me feel like we're not alone with our secrets -- and thank goodness I don't have as big of ones as some of these people. There's some doozies!
How cute are these little critters?! They are teacup pigs and grow up to only be 12 to 16 inches tall. Read more.

Another blog that I just have to check every day is Cake Wrecks. I probably shouldn't be, since I have a horrible sweet tooth and it makes my mouth water, but it also makes me giggle like crazy. How could it not be a favorite!
Okay, so every day, they show the worst of the worst cakes created. That's where the "wrecks" comes in. But then on Sundays, Jen gives us pretty treats called Sunday Sweets, "Sunday Sweets is my weekly NON-Wreck feature, to remind you how wrecky the Wrecks really are."
Here's one of my favorite Cake Wreck posts.
And here's my favorite Sunday Sweet.
What's your most memorable cake?

My new blog-crush is The Bright Side Project. Not only is it filled with super-cute stationary and pretty-as-peaches accessories, the whole point of the website is to bring a little happiness into the world by giving us stuff. How sweet is that?!
Not only are there free downloads everyday, you can also enter to win lots of cool shwag...and enter as often as you like.
Go check it out!
And let us know if you ever win. I never win anything, so it's exciting to hear when other people do.
Happy Monday!
As I was reading through my everyday list of random blogs and internet juiciness, I stumbled across this article. What a relief! Finally a reason why those nasty little mosquitoes keep picking on me and sucking my blood. Its soo annoying this time of year. Apparently, mosquitoes can smell and are attracted to the chemicals emitted by people with O-type blood. Basically, I smell so yummy, they can help but take a little bite. :)
Another factor in being bitten is the amount of alcohol consumed -- but for a different reason than above. Really, it's because being buzzed makes you less likely to swat the nasty buggers away.
But as interesting as this information is, it doesn't make the bites itch any less!

PS: O-type blood is greatly desired by not only mosquitoes, but the blood banks as well. If you can handle needles and are an eligible donor, you should try donating blood. You get free juice and cookies! Learn more
So one of my favorite blogs is PassiveAggressiveNotes.com, where people can the submit awkward, pent-up-hostility-filled notes they find in everyday life. You can imagine how excited I was when my coworker posted this note on our fridge:
Don't get me wrong, I do feel terrible for my coworker... its super annoying to have your stuff go missing in the fridge. But I'm still lovin' her letter.
I sent the brilliant blogsters this photo and story, so hopefully they will find it as amusing as I do and post it! I will let you know if it shows up.
