Some day this kitty will grow up to be a sparkly superhero too. :)

Gramma had a loose definition of rusk, any twice baked bread slathered with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. She often bought loaves of day old bread just to toast for rusks. What is a rusk?


Hope you are all surviving the Holiday Madness!

 Cute puppy source

We just had our first real* snow fall, so I thought this cute pup was perfect. *For those who live in warmer climates: Snow that stays and doesn't melt immediately.


Awesome:
♦An interview with the amazing seamstress for American Horror Story
♦America's First Cat Cafe.  The best part is that they have adoptable shelter cats available!
♦I love AbFab!
♦Sparkling water is the best.
♦Amazing miniature library

Cuteness:
♦Kitten cuteness overload  Purritos!!!
♦Shedd Aquarium took in a rescue sea otter pup! She is so dang cute!!!

Creepy:
♦20 unique hearses

Health:
♦Receipts are gross! I wonder what impact the thermal paper has on the health of cashiers at stores. They handle that crap all day long. (I speak from experience.)

LBGT:
♦Bad-ass woman firefighter! I am glad to hear that her fellow firefighters were so supportive during her transition. :)

Quiz:
♦Modern art...or garbage? I didn't do very well on the quiz :P

WTF:
♦Starbucks new dress codes; Tattoos acceptable, Wedding Rings nope.
I can understand not allowing rings for sanitary reasons...although I don't really think of Starbucks as a food producing entity. I am guessing most of their food items come in pre-made, and frozen. I really doubt they have someone mixing up cookie dough in the back.

I work in manufacturing and wearing rings is dangerous. I wear mine on a necklace so I can have it with me.

**For the record I am a tattoo fan, IF they are tasteful. I have a bunch myself, but wouldn't want to buy food from someone who had derogatory or grotesque (faux skin rips, blood gore etc.) tattoos visible.

Have a great week, stay warm!
