Scientists looking for the missing 83% of the universe’s mass can stop. It has been found.It is to be seen in this shape, in groups of 5 or 6, on boyfriends’ sidetables around the world.It is apparently self-propagating (a single unit can somehow spawn numerous others) and sentient, given to appearing and disappearing at will.Be warned though: it is hard to detect. The only surefire method I’ve gleaned has been by walking barefoot across a seemingly safe floor.Science is hard. 


True science.

It’s been a long time since I felt this way about a song. It’s love. It definitely is love.

Rosemary Gin Fizz
I demand 5 of these right now.

Rosemary Gin FizzAdapted from Food & Wine, December 2002
Ingredients:1/4 cup gin (I recommend either Bombay Sapphire or Tanqueray to highlight the woodsy features of the gin. I don’t recommend Hendricks, which is my favorite gin, as it’s flavored with cucumbers and rose petals and will thus change the tasting notes of the drink.)2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice1 tablespoon Rosemary Syrup (see below)Ice cubesCold club soda1 rosemary sprig and fresh red currants, for garnish
Preparation:
1. In a tall glass, stir the gin, lemon juice and Rosemary Syrup.
2. Fill the glass halfway with ice; top with club soda. Garnish with the rosemary and currants and serve.
Rosemary Syrup:
Ingredients:2 cups water1/2 cup sugar4 rosemary sprigs, rinsed
Preparation:
Combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer over moderately low heat for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let steep for 10 minutes. Strain the syrup and chill. (The syrup can be prepared and chilled for up to 1 week.)
Notes:To get the most juice out of your lemons, microwave the whole fruit at high power for about 20 seconds, then roll it on the counter while pressing firmly before cutting and squeezing.

Given my long history with typos, it has become my belief that it’s nearly impossible for someone to accurately proofread their own writing and be consistently successful.
Information Diet | 500 Words before 8am

minimalmac:

Starting your day as a producer means that your information consumption has meaning: the rest of the day means consuming information that is relevant to what it is that you’re producing. Waking up as a producer frames the rest of your habits. You’re not mindlessly grazing on everyone’s facebook’s statuses. You’re out getting what it is you need to get in order to produce. Waking up as a producer is procrastination insurance.

Such good advice. 

The death of a good artist is assuming that they’ve figured it out, or that they’re as good as it gets…the maintenance of a good artist is assuming they know very little – to continually reinvest in their hunger to grow, evolve, and improve in their ability to understand the world.
