Charts and graphs that perfectly represent twenty-something life.Thanks Buzzfeed for another completely accurate description of my life.
How to make Mendl’s Courtesan au Chocolat, as seen in The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Ben Nunery and his daughter, Olivia, recreate the wedding photos of her father and deceased mother, Ali. There’s not a lot I can say about them-I might start crying.
Check out the Buzzfeed article and see the photographer’s (Ali’s sister) blog. Maybe have some tissues on hand.
Literary Graffiti is Wonderful
Literary graffiti, enough said. Street artists like Banksy and Kobra are driven by political statements and much like them, these graffiti pieces are powerful and eye opening. Not to mention, great quotes that simply summarize their respective novels.
Sidenote: I wish I had seen this in high school-I would’ve consulted these instead of Spark Notes! At least now I can appreciate these pieces, after reading and understanding the brilliance of Orwell and Vonnegut.
My particular favorites are “Alice in Wonderland”, “1984”, and “The Crying Lot of 49”. These are great examples of statements without words and I love anything visual like these.
