My Favourite Articles This Week
Absolutely loved this piece from Fast Company about book covers that don’t make it. They are almost always better!
How to feel good tired instead of depleted.
The book nerd in me is delighted by this post about notebooks in Movies.
A really good long read about ‘the friendship problem’ that I bet we all experience. I’m still mulling it over.
This was fascinating, and of course not that surprising- how AI reduces the world to stereotypes.
Also unsurprising- after an extensive study, it was found that half of inflation is caused by corporate profits.
My Favourite Pins This Week
I made this for dinner the other week and it was so good! If you aren’t a tofu fan, the same dish would work with chicken. I’d also recommend adding some honey, maybe about 1/4 cup to the sauce- to balance that sweet and sour just right. Find the recipe here.
I love recipes that have caramel in them, but absolutely despise recipes that call for purchasing and unwrapping a bunch of those little square caramels.This recipe has only 7 ingredients and not a single one includes tiny caramel unwrapping! Which I adore. These delicious cookies are perfect for chilly weekend baking. Check out the easy-peasy recipe here.
This super bulky hat pattern is free and perfect for busting out a quick new knit! This time of year can feel blah, so how about knitting a new hat for yourself -or a friend- in a fun new colour? The bigger needles and super thick yarn make this a really quick knit! Find the free pattern right here.
I love the idea of recovering books you love in happy fabric- what a fun way to display your favourite books! This looks really, easy, too. I mean, I like to buy cloth bound, so DIY-ing your own cloth bound sounds even more fun! See the full DIY here.
These braided yarn hearts are such a cute idea for making a yarny heart garland or some ornaments to hang from some indoor branches. perfect for destashing red, pink, white or purple yarn you have lingering, too! Check out the cute DIY for these right over here.
I hope you enjoy, and have been having a great January so far! Wishing you all the most wonderful things for this year.
