1. That moment when you see a city fire department vehicle doing this to the car in front of them. Shouldn’t that not be allowed?
2. Brunch and mimosas at our favorite cafe Oddfellow’s
3. Spending a perfect spring day with Ashley down at Cal Anderson Park x2
4. Trying out Broadway’s “Bait Shop”
5. Capping the weekend off with a catch up with Stephy Roo
And just because.
The amount of buzz that this film is getting these days is insane! I’ve actually never seen Harmony Korine’s controversial 1995 film, Kids, but from what I’ve heard it’s not one to be forgotten or missed. Apparently as soon as Korine was tied to Spring Breakers, all of the leading actresses flocked to the role. Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson, and Selena Gomez will light up the screen as good girls turned robbers in this film. I’ve made a few posts about this movie previously, but this time I just wanted to highlight the posters.

One school in Philadelphia is testing out family-style lunches and the students love it! Not only is it teaching them manners at the table, enabling them to try new things, but it’s also teaching them portion control as well – something that is so crucial today as many kids are becoming obese at a younger age. I think this is such a great idea and I hope it expands to other public schools as well.

Veronica told me just the other day that I was overdue for A Collection post. In looking through my archives, I see that it has only been TWO months. This is actually probably a new record for us. Like many “A Collection” posts, there is no theme. I wish I had something to say about how I’m feeling or why I chose the photographs that I did, but I choose them because at the time it is what is most pleasing to me!
Enjoy!
This commercial has been on the air for months and it STILL makes me laugh every time I see it. Kids are the best.
Who: Alia Wang (Alexander Wang’s adorable niece)

Hey there readers!
I hope you have all had a very lovely Valentine’s Day so far. It’s not over yet so we don’t really know what else is in store for us, but I can definitely say today that Valentine’s Day in the adult world is not that exciting. It’s not as exciting as when you were a kid and you had the whole afternoon dedicated to a class Valentine’s Day party where you would decorate a cookie at a station, pass out Hello Kitty valentines (oh just me?) or spend the entire day consuming sugar. So much sugar. Seriously though, Valentine’s Day sweets > all other holiday candies.
Valentine’s Day in the office was peachy, but nothing will ever take the place of the excitement I had on Valentine’s Day as a kid or even in college and celebrating with my friends.
Valentine’s Day cards are priceless and really say so much by saying so little…with that… – BuzzFeed’s 10 Brutally Honest Valentine’s Day Cards From Kids
My co-worker shared with me the sweetest little post today about a young Japanese boy named Tasuku and his best friend – his bulldog Muu. Going through the entire photo series is really just enough to make your heart melt and fall into pieces. But you kind of have to see it, it’s adorbz and I want a dog. Now.

If you know me at all IRL, then you know that Teen Jeopardy is my absolute favorite! Why is that? Because every episode there’s always a pop culture category and who dominates that category? Me. Seriously, these kids were too busy looking at their textbooks that they couldn’t even read the gossip blogs or turn on the radio. That’s where I come in. Somebody has to, right?
Anyways, the above has nothing to do with this clip. The end of Teen Jeopardy week was last night, but Kevin was nice enough to share this video with me and it is truly an incredible finish. Please watch until the end for the ULTIMATE sass. The kid is a boss basically.
Can we talk about how Internet Explorer is tugging at our 90s child heart strings with their new commercial?! It’s not going to make me want to use it over Google Chrome or anything like that, but still – adorableness.
New York-based artist Tricia Messeroux has transformed some of the cutest kids into spitting images of the stars who walked the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards last Sunday night.
Check out the full series here.
1. Men’s Fashion…it’s something to be afraid of. Vern discovered this last week and it was just too ridiculous NOT to post. [Yahoo]
2. A little Japanese girl named Rino loves to eat the food that her mother makes her from all over the world. I can’t believe I spent this much time watching her eat, but it’s so cute. So worth it. Cuteness starts at 2:15. [Source]
3. It’s here! Check out Warby Parker’s annual report. It’s quite pretty. [Source]
4. OkCupid has launched a new dating app called Crazy Blind Date that will supposedly change dating for our generation. [Source]
5. I love spices. In fact, it’s always been a dream of mine to own a spice rack. I feel like you’re not a real adult unless you have one and actually use it. I have no idea what these spices taste like, but I found this post on [Cool Material] and I think any spice with this clever name has to be good. Or maybe it isn’t.
Monopoly is retiring a game piece and is leaving it up to fans of the game to vote on which one will survive. My favorite has always been the iron. The piece that receives the least number of votes will be off the board as soon as next month and replaced with either a diamond ring, cat, guitar, helicopter or toy robot. My vote is for the toy robot! As of right now, both the hat and the wheelbarrow have the fewest number of votes. [Source]
You can vote at the official Monopoly Hasbro website here.
