Sunday Stumbles

Mm, the art of StumbleUpon.  SU is definitely one of the most addicting tools on the internet today.  I would like to take the time to share the best of my early stumbles for this Sunday morning.

First favorite stumble of the day: foodgawker

This site is deliciously appealing.  They seem to have taken one of the most delicious items from each of their listed recipe sites and featured them.  I am convinced that I must make my own homemade raspberry ice cream, as well as blueberry ice cream pie, and maybe some pizza puffs? Okay, now I’m starving. Like I said, the site is worth a look, especially if you are looking for some new recipes or even some new recipe sites for reference.

Next stumble for the morning: Kaboodle “Owl decor”

You may or may not have heard of the shopping site kaboodle.com …really, I’m sure you have.  I ” stumbled upon” some adorable owl merch and recommend you check out the slide show as well, vases, towels, dishes, purses….  Owls are freaking cute.

Number three on the stumblings: Drawings of Leo Da’Vinci

This one is pretty self-explanatory.  Enjoying the sketches from the brilliant mind of Leonardo, clearly a good stumble.  It’s amazing, and a little terrifying, seeing these works that are obviously advanced concepts and theories and not just doodles in an old notepad.  Beautiful, dark, and brilliant.

And lastly, and I’m stopping here mostly because my Goddaughter will be dropped off soon and I need to be babysitting…

Fourth and Final Stumble for the morning: Price Tag Fails

Slightlywarped.com’s “Curiosities: Price Tag Fails”… this one is just funny, and who doesn’t need something to smile about?  Besides, I need to give you some kind of balance here and clearly SU was much too serious this morning up until this point. Recipes and cute animal homeware? Leonardo? Very nice but not in the same way as this last one. Enjoy.

Oh, and you should probably do your own Stumbling too. I mean, I can tell you about some of the sweet stuff that I find… but, you could probably just go on and find even more rad stuff all by your lonesome by clicking right here. Enjoy your Sunday everyone! Maybe you’ll hear more from me later!
