I haven't gotten a chance to blog much week...super busy and super sick! Ick!
Can you believe that Christmas is only 14 days away?!? I haven't even begun shopping yet! Yikes!!!
Care for some interesting web finds?? Fantabulous!
- You'd think that the holiday season would bring out the kindness in people. Instead, we're seen pushing fellow shoppers, fighting for parking spots, and shouting at weary cashiers when they aren't moving fast enough. This year, I encourage you smile a little! Etiquette guru Emily Post offers advice about holiday politeness (and happiness!) here.
- Speaking of happiness, get your optimism fix at Only Positive News. It's quite the shift from your local paper's front page.
- Washing fruit seems so easy...until it's time to peel off that annoying little sticker. Designer and engineer Scott Amron has invented Fruitwash, a sticker that dissolves into fruit soap. Check out the NPR article here. Amron also created the Brush & Rinse toothbrush. I wonder if this guy is behind that body wash/shampoo/shaving cream combo for men as well. Um...how busy are we, people??
- A woman received a very angry letter from a man who felt "led on" by their one and only date...and decided to out the poor guy on the web. (Well, not really poor...he's an investment manager...) Hey, I felt bad for Mike! Until I read that he Googled miscellaneous info about her...including her age and e-mail address. Woah. Read the story (and letter) from the Huffington Post here.
- Chivalry's dead? Not for Keanu Reeves! Watch him give up his seat for a woman on the Q train. Thanks, Keanu!
Enjoy!
