I must really be getting into the swing of this blogging thing, because everytime I find something cute, funny, helpful, interesting or whatever, I always come straight here and bookmark it in a blog post for you guys. I almost always forget to include wonderful things I find, but I really enjoy coming back and looking over this list of what I found interesting and/or relevant each week. I wish it was my job to just go out and find cool stuff to share, because honestly, there is so much out there I would never run out of material! That said, enjoy this week’s links!

chandeliers galore

Great post on why cheap stuff is no bargain if you don’t use it (and about spending your money on things you actually love/use, even if they’re pricey – of course only applicable if you’re debt-free, otherwise, that’s just foolish.)

Sarah Wilson sounds off on soy… kinda heartbreaking, I am addicted to Silk vanilla soy creamer.

I am obsessed with this gorgeous shelf paper!

10 happiness tips for busy people

My coworker made this movie trailer for his brother’s wedding – sweet!

My friend Jason sent me this video to consider as a possible career path. I’d say he knows me well. This looks…..awesome. It’s California’s largest no-cage, no-kill animal shelter, called The Cat House on the Kings.
