Presenting: totally edible (although the list of ingredients look suspicious) spray paint.
Alright those apples look pretty cool. The following foods, however, do not.

Dali, on Originality and Cliches
The first man to compare the cheeks of a young woman to a rose was obviously a poet; the first to repeat it was possibly an idiot.
– Salvador Dali, in the preface to Pierre Cabanne’s Dialogues with Marcel Duchamp
Happy Birthday to Me
It’s not really my birthday. But I’ve wanted this poster for a few years now, and decided to treat myself this morning.
If the ladies in the poster mean nothing to you, check out Questionable Content. Start from number one; the beginning art is a little hard to get by but watching it improve over time is worth it. Jeph Jacques, webcomic artist, is self-taught and was eventually able to quit his day job and fully support him and his wife off advertising and merch sales. Impressive.
Although I wish he’d post more than once a day.
Here’s one of my favorites (click to make it bigger and more legible):
Origami Candles
Wallpaper Collection by Catalina Estrada
Man, I wish I had made this.
Song of the Week
Currently on repeat on my iPod.
Side note, I need to make a few playlists. I use Genius periodically, but I don’t always like the choices [it?] makes, and I have so much music on my ipod that finding the next song takes too long.
I also need new earbuds.
Crimean Winter Landscapes
Romance.
But seriously, how gorgeous are these landscapes by Russian photographer Daniel Korzhonov?
When looking at each photograph, the viewer can’t help but feel the shiver of a cold, snowy afternoon or drift away into the dreamy mist of a morning sunrise.
Korzhonov says his favorite genre is landscape photography. “I am attracted to the theme of man and the mountains: how man is small and helpless in comparison with the peaks of the mountains, but at the same time he can conquer it, can fight with itself and survive in the wilderness of rock, moving higher and higher.”
