I love old educational videos, particularly the low budget variety. In this cautionary tale, two puppets tell us how to avoid hosting parasites.
The main message (overtly stated multiple times) is essentially “Do not defecate in the dirt outside your house.”
Really. They can’t stress that enough.

It’s not often that one gets to drive past a giant rusty dragon lawn ornament…but one lucky photographer found this fellow in Atlanta.
Let this be a reminder to always carry a camera. You never know what you’re going to pass.
Photo captions, anyone?

The art world has been buzzing about Camille Rose Garcia’s illustrations in the new Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
.
Hi-Fructose just had a behind the scenes look that made me all the more eager to get my hands on a copy.
I swear, this woman can do no wrong.
See a few more here.

I’ve had these stored on my computer for a while now. I absolutely love these ultra-geeky science Valentines.
Sorry I no longer have the sources!
To be honest, I had a whole slew of Valentine material to post, but I’m not much in the mood for it. Maybe I’ll do a late post…or wait until next year.
Whatever form love may take in your life today, I hope you’re all enjoying it!

Here are a few Regretsy favorites to commemorate the special day tomorrow.
This card evokes profound gratitude in me…because I know I will not be receiving anything remotely like it. And that’s a beautiful feeling.
I really don’t like to poke fun at anyone’s craft skills (or lack thereof) because I’m the first to admit that not all of my projects are winners, but…this closely resembles my nursery school Valentine efforts.
I wasn’t ready to see this next one. Go ahead and read the description, then click on the uncensored version if you dare.

Has anyone actually seen these meaty expressions of love in supermarkets this week? Not a bad thing to cook up for your favorite carnivore as a Valentine.

I just remembered that I did “Love Week” on this blog last year as Valentine’s Day approached. Not sure why I didn’t think to do that again this time around (I do have some holiday oddities to post). But here’s a recap of last year’s highlights if you missed them:
Sea Squirts
Skull Candy Box
Shortbread Tech Hearts
Elizabeth McGrath’s Butcher Knives
Oktapodi
Will It Blend?
Depressing Times Greetings
Industrial Hearts
Paul Graves Balloon Sculptures
Heart of Glass -
I keep seeing this image of Why Time Goes Slower as the Brain Gets Older popping up on my favorite blogs:
So I decided to check out some of Rhonald Bloomestijn’s other work. The style varies a great deal from one piece to the next, though he pulls it off quite nicely.
I’m slightly partial to the science illustrations, but there is some fabulous editorial work as well. See more here.
