Between a summer cold and starting an intensive 8-week Microbiology course and a farm internship this week, I'm feeling a bit all over the place. All that fun has led to my using the internet less this week than some, which was probably a healthy change. I am still seeking balance and restored health but I swear a true food post will arrive next week as expected (by me!).
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and remember to honor our soldiers who have fallen in service (to the US or your country wherever you may be).
I don't have a digital SLR but hope to one day. Either way this tool looks like a great way to learn about how your camera settings affect your shots. (via How About Orange)
This full gathered skirt makes me wish I followed through on the half-baked attempt to learn how to sew. Gertie appears to have great tips for making vintage-style clothing. I know I was mesmerized for a bit with her blog. I bookmarked this Fashion District Guide, A Fabric Place in Baltimore and this video on doing the Victory Roll hairstyle. (via How About Orange)
If you are a visual person and haven't seen Pinterest, check it out. It enables users to make visual collages based on topics of their choosing and to follow other people's collages. You can request an invite or I can invite you if you give me your e-mail address. I think I have 4 more invites...unlike Gmail they don't seem to provide users with infinity invitations.
iMuscle looks like a neat iPad app for those into working out. It allows user to search for exercises by exercise and individual muscles.
