This is what it’s come to. And it’s hilarious (and… dangerous?). Notice the beer cans tumbling down the hill.

Even better than chocolate and santa? Two awkward but energetic guys dancing. One new dance for each new day. Here’s the link. You’re welcome!

p.s. Thanks to you, Gavin! I suppose I can’t take credit for this discovery. :)


I’m at home sick. I saw this. I’m dying (of laughter… not of illness! Ha! Horrible jokes!).
Point is, have a look. Go on. You know you want to see pictures of Ryan Gosling with made-up quotes appealing to your feminist, liberal self.

One of the joys of working with middle schoolers is that they’re pretty much constantly hilarious, whether they know it or not.
Here are a few favorite quotes. There are so many more that I’ve forgotten… Perhaps a journal is in order.
I feel like I’m the host of this show daily. lv, molly
“Miss Molly, I’m taller than Snooki. She’s only 4’9″, and I’m 4’10″. That means I’m taller than a grown-up. Not that I’m bragging or whatever.”
“Didn’t O.J. Simpson kill Marilyn Monroe?”
One boy to another: “Are you going to ask Nicole out again? You should ask her out in Spanish. There’s no way she can say no.”
“No shit.” (A student blurted this out, after my co-teacher explained infinitives.)

A few things that have made me smile recently. Enjoy your weekend! lv, molly
This impression of R. Kelly. Amazing.
This song by Foster The People. I heard it on KEXP when I was driving to school at 6:30 a.m., and I couldn’t stop dancing in place; I LOVE catchy songs with whistling.
Totally adorable father and daughter singing “Home.”
Black Bean + Sweet Potato Chili.
This book. Maybe I was too snotty before because there’s some serious entertainment to be found in trashy books.

Sundays are rarely the relaxing, care-free days I hope they’ll be, but I do have one ritual that I regard with some degree of sanctity… Reading fashion, celebrity, and food blogs for one hour as I drink coffee and postpone exercising. Today I thought I’d share some of my finds with you… lv, molly
1. Beyonce is releasing a line of temporary tattoos. I’m of two minds about this situation: I love temporary tattoos and currently have lightening bolt ones in my closet / I never thought I’d be able to associate Beyonce’s business model with a vending machine in a pool hall.
2. Because I spend an insane amount of time at work, I often feel cut-off from the day’s news. I didn’t know who buzz-kill Christine O’Donnell was until a week ago, and subsequently I’ve been shocked and amused by her assertions. One of the latest? That she can stop the entire country from having sex.
3. Dan Savage’s It Gets Better Project through which he reaches out to LGBTQ youth to reassure them that the future has wonderful things in store for them. A much-needed message, and I hope there won’t be a need for it much longer.
4. These pictures of Marilyn Monroe.
5. Lauren’s recipe for biscuits. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, biscuits were never a staple in my diet like some of my Southern friends. But then I tried them one fine day, and I fell hard. I want to make these ASAP.
6. Fabulous fall dresses for less than $100. I’m delighted to see that my favorite fall dress, the striped sweater dress, was featured. Perfect with my cowboy boots. (And I’m jonesing for the polka dot and fair isle sweater dress…)
7. This simple stir-fry recipe from the NYT’s Well blog.
8. A mushroom crop top. Amazing… or… just me?

I love this lil guy. Let’s adopt this as our mantra when people get too salty for our liking.

Also the most hilarious. Happy Sunday, friends. xo, m
