Lovely Internet 5.9.14

1. Maybe it’s time to pick up some squid.

2. I wrote a little something in this month’s issue of Paprika Southern about my grandma.

3. This might be a new-house summer project.

4. My friend, who is a marriage and family therapist, said this is the best article he’s read on the gender gap.

5. I could be more creative with how I use spinach.

6. I think I have present shock.

7. I learned how to run in these shoes. I trained for and ran a marathon and a 21 mile trail race in these shoes. I don’t want to get into the “anecdotal” “science” of minimalist running, but they helped me become a runner.

8. Don’t say “I have a boyfriend.”

9. A good starting place.

10. Rachael got married!
