reading material

November 15, 2013

In place of my weekly rituals feature — which, full disclosure, I completely failed to get together in time — I’m here with a list of 8 great links to check out as we head into the weekend. I will be spending mine poring over the many magazines on my coffee table — thank you, expiring airline miles! — so I thought it was only fitting to offer you some reading material as well.

There is no pumpkin in pumpkin-flavored food and drinks. Discuss.

18 Things You’d Be Surprised Happened on The Simpsons If You Stopped Watching in 2003. (This is a few weeks old, but it still blows my mind as a diehard fan of The Simpsons seasons 3-8.)

Lucky editor in chief Eva Chen shows us her office — and it’s redunkulous.

This is the best, funniest, most adorable gift for a mother.

I’m outraged by the crazy-high cost of rugs, which is why we still don’t have any (minus a very precious Persian rug we’ve tucked away until Teddy earns our trust). I plan to scoop one up during my upcoming India trip for cheap, but if I wasn’t and if this fit with our color scheme, I would totally go for the reasonably priced Asta Rug by Grandiflora, a new home decor site launched by House of Earnest blogger Erin Souder.

Love this post on 12 Habits of Healthy, Happy People Who Don’t Give a S— About Your Inner Peace, which I discovered through Betsy.

There’s a new iOS app that’s being called the “Yelp for men,” as in women can dish anonymous reviews about specific males. Oh, and no guys, you can’t join; the app uses Facebook to detect your sex. And it will know if you all of a sudden change sexes.

Been blasting this song quite a bit lately. To be honest, I mostly like Hollis’ portions and the part from 1:05-2:00. But still.

Happy reading — have a great weekend!
