God bless The Awl for deconstructing Clan of the Cave Bear, which allows us to remember when our mother gave us a copy for Easter because our mother clearly did not know what kind of book it was (the dirty kind). We were ten.

Okay my fifth grade math teacher Mr. Wilson had us read an excerpt from this to explain the base 10 number system. (Yep, you’ll be shocked to know that I was a grade ahead in math WHAT WHAT). I was intrigued and wanted to keep reading, and he embarrassed the hell out of me when he kind of chuckled and said it was inappropriate and that I should check with my mom first. So, here’s to you, Mr. Wilson. I am SO going to read this now that I am a grown up and can read about wobbly bits.

Um my Mom bought this book for me and then the rest of the series and I was on, like, book 4 when she realized they were a little smutty and took them all away. As someone in the comments section (which, if you read these books, you MUST read) said “It’s so nice to know other people read also these “educational” books during their impressionable youth.”

EDIT: I really need *someone* else out there to tell me they read these books. 

One summer at the beach I wasn’t feeling well so my aunt lent me a book she’d bought but never read. I was 12. It turned out to be a classy-ish bodice ripper. My aunt got around to reading the book a month later and immediately called my mom to apologize and check if I’d read the book. I lied and said no.

Aww I love the list. To avoid the “we have nothing to eat” feeling, I usually end up scribbling some options on a scrap of paper and attaching it to the fridge with a magnet.

Last night’s Happy Endings was stellar. 

If you still aren’t watching, you’re dead to me. 

After watching last night’s episode, my boyfriend finally admitted he is adding it to his list of shows.

I’ve sung its praises before, but this stuff is awesome. It tastes good, and tides me over until the next meal. It’s great iced, too. Highly recommend.

+ DIY + 

Look what we made for our friend Lauren! I say we because I couldn’t have gotten all the way through this project without my crayon cutting master. After showing him how cool the end result would be, it was fairly easy to get The Beard on board to help me pull this little project together. 

Lauren is a teacher and I thought this would be the perfect gift for her. Inspired and Informed on how-to we got to work. In total this project took us about 2-3 hours. Cutting the crayons was the most time consuming, but the smoother the cut the better it will look in the end. 

I decided on a pattern instead of laying the crayons at random. What do you think? 

I originally stumbled upon a photo of the idea on Pinterest. 

I’m going to make one for our home this week, but I’m going to remove the crayon wrappers. Now I just have to figure out which colors to use. 

This looks like a very useful website! TipJunkie
