Monday List of Awesome

Alright so, I'm ditching the Sunday Awesome business and I'm going to make a lovely list of awesome things to see and do on the interwebs for Monday instead. You'll like it! It'll make your skirt fly up, and that has to be a good thing, right?

(If you are reading this in a reader you could put it in a separate window and then use the links when you're procrastinating. Don't pretend you're not going to do it.)


So, for my inaugural list:

 

♥ Today is the first day of the Six Items or Less challenge!

♥ The amazing Rebecca Clements of KinokoFry put together this hilarious/fabulous illustration which takes us from the year of the Tiger to the year of the Rabbit. I know nothing about Chinese Astrological years but the image of sexy time with a tiger had me shaking in my seat. For shizzle, my nizzle.

♥ If you haven't already, you should read this article by Michael Pollan that was published in the New York Times a couple of years back. It outlines his book In Defense of Food which I've been reading lately. It's some kind of super fabulous - food is an endlessly fascinating topic, don't you think?

♥ Talking of which, the ever fabulous Bex has started a little foodie blog called the Adventures of Doris Plum. She is adorable and I miss her a stupid amount (although I am, as always, a revoltingly bad correspondent. Boo. Sorry baby).

♥ This is a couple of weeks late now but if you haven't already seen the Hyperbole and a Half post on the year Kenny Loggins ruined Christmas then you are missing out on a belly-achingly good read. I think I doubled over at one point, it's just too too perfect. Comic timing is an amazing thing, and that lady has it in spades. For realz.

♥ Also, call Trippy Cat Gifs for a good time. There's nothing quite like a garish cat gif to make me lolz.

(close your eyes and dance or something)

 

♥ Here is a mixtape at The Fox is Black which is quite sexxxxxxy. Also good for work!

♥ How to tie a sexy head scarf on your sexy head. I am quite fond of number one which is called, ridiculously, "The Tastemaker Turban". I am tastemaking right now people.

♥ Product Junkies Rehab did a round up of their top ten natural deodorants (after exhaustive research, it must be said). I'm very tempted to try the first baking soda paste deodorant - however I'm using a solid crystal at the moment so it's bound to be another 15 months or so before I need to address the problem of more deodorant. So long to wait!

Enjoy, kittens!
