Mother of Pearl Monday





Awesome:
♦Cleaning out Poppa's shed ~ A moving story.
♦A young girls story: Friends with African Wildlife The photos are amazing!
♦Early color film test footage (1922!)
♦A first lady of the past had a pet raccoon!

DIY:
♦Make a cuff bracelet from a soup can
♦Confetti cupcake toppers (Courtesy of Aunt Peaches)
[I have been having a hard time finding non-Valentines craft, until the Awesome Spacemansteve sent me a few awesome ones:
♦Lace embossed bowl
♦ Gorgeous decorated eggs. (This is the largest version of the images I could find. I do not know the original source, nor can I make out the watermark on the photos.Contact me if you know who the creator is!!!)
♦Sequined sweater (I think I would make a cat or an owl)

Feminism:
♦Opting Out Of Media That Hurts [This article lead me down a feminist rabbit hole, see the following]
♦A feminine hygiene company won't use the work "vagina" they use ridiculous euphemisms instead. [I then found the next two terrible products, which could have gone in the WTF category as well]
♦The Smooth Groove (anti-camel-toe cup) I honestly thought this was a joke product at first.
♦Vaginal mints At best these are ridiculous, at the worst they are dangerous and could cause infections! Thankfully their site appears to be gone.

Health:
♦What Should You Know Before Being Admitted to a Hospital?
♦Cat health: Keep them indoors. (This is a link to a PETA page.  I don't like PETA, but this advice is sound.)
♦Excessive soda consumption linked to woman's death

Lol:
♦"Real love means punching your loved one in the face out of sheer zest of life!"
♦Terrible Valentine cakes (The poop-looking roses are horrendous!)
♦What kind of mix is your dog? (This happens to my Bud, they think he is a beagle mix.)

Noms:
♦Roasted root vegetables
♦Chocolate Chip Oreo Brownie Cups
♦Vegan chocolate-hazelnut pie 

WTF:
♦The worst named beauty products (Ick, some are so gross.)
