Embroidery by Totally Severe

30 Rock embroidery by Totally Severe

I like the perspective of Sarah of Totally Severe.  30 Rock meets Raphael's angels, Napolean on a My Little Pony, floating Vicodins.  Funny and good stitching!

Ira Glass on Improving your Craft

Ira Glass offers advice and encouragement in a talk about improving your craft. He describes the gap that exists between your aspirations and what you are producing when you are beginning. You have enough taste to know that what you made is a disappointment.  In order to clase the gap you have to create a large volume of work.

"You will be fierce, you will be a warrior, and you will make things that aren't as good as you know in your heart you want them to be. And you will just make one after another."

Moscow hungry foreigners

English Russia has a nice photo essay of foreigners (mainly Brits and Yanks) with drawings of the foods they miss most from back home.

The object of epicurian longing in the photo above is "brunch."
