not usually a cocktails person, but these look like “girl drinks,” so I could be good.

I wonder if I could pay Edith to make that for me?(tags: clothes)

the thing that intrigues me about the Amsterdam is that it comes with a skirtguard on the rear wheel. OTOH, definitely not enough gears for Oly hills.(tags: bicycling)

“I just spent the first [3] years of my sons life trying to get him not to eat blocks, and now you’re telling him they taste like fucking strawberries. Thanks a lot assholes.” I want some, but then again, I’m not a toddler.

as much as I like carbonated water, I should probably do something like this. (I tend to buy the cans at Fred Meyer, because it’s the best unit cost, and I drink them quickly enough so they don’t go flat, as compared to 1 or 2 liter bottles.)

whoa. starting to actually use jquery with my own scripts. (I may even rewrite some old stuff.)

via 3quirks daily. 7&7 is pretty much the only thing I get, if hard cider isn’t available, because I can remember the name & usually like the drink. (also: old-fashioned! that’s what I used to get when I went dancing with Greyson!)

“Many factors account for the drop in Brazilian fertility, but one recent study identified a factor most people probably wouldn’t consider: soap operas (novelas).” AWESOME.
