This is OT, but I love how the new design allows me to look at pictures SO MUCH MORE EASILY! Nice work, Jez!

Amen, girl. I would love to subscribe to "Snacks".

Jezebel, will you marry me? You are SPOT ON today!

I love you, Jezebel.

@Kit Cloudkicker: I love these mittens and I love you for having a picture of them.

@ragamufffin: PICTURES, please!

@pmerrick: fiction—-read Major Pettigrew's Last Stand. Best book I read in January.

@SuicaLove: I love the ryokan! So much fun!

@AgentBristow: YES! I love mine too! Check out this recipe—-it was AWESOME!

@BasketsOfOsprey: Oh god. What do your mutual friends say?
