You might have noticed that my blog’s theme has changed once again. I like that this one shows the posts’ titles and dates published. Also I was just getting bored of looking at the old design. In other completely scintillating news, I also added a feed of all of the photos I take and share on Instagram – you can find THAT by clicking on the menu icon (you know, those three tiny parallel lines) at the top right of the home page.

Just in case you have just as short of an attention span as me, and are looking for new and different things to read online, because come on, this blog is definitely getting old, here are some stellar recommendations (in no particular order):
