My daughter wanted to dress up her hamster in dolly clothes, I told her that wasn’t really going to work…but if we cut holes in a box and make some of those seaside type pictures you stick your head through, only hamster sized, perhaps we could make him look like he dressed up!
-I should point out to anyone concerned about animal cruelty- David Bowie (the hamster pictured) was not forced to do this, he put his head through the holes of his own accord, and out of curiosity. It is basically a box with holes in- the kind of thing you are encouraged to offer your hamster to play in for enrichment. You wouldn’t worry about someone giving their hamster a cardboard tube to play with- this is the same idea. The paints used are all non-toxic and kid safe, to ensure they would not cause him any harm. He was only in the box for a few minutes, and we took him out as soon as he got bored. If anyone else is intending to do the same, please do so responsibly, and with the best interests of your hamster at heart. Thanks :)
What a fashionable hamster.

There is just something inherently exciting about being in a true college town; whether it’s the proximity to a great campus, the constant reminders of an alternate lifestyle …
Would I do it all over again? ABSOLUTELY.
This cake is so beyond amazing, right down to the burgers made with Stupid Auburn Tiger, nerdy Tech Yellow Jacket, and jorts-wearing Florida Gator.
80 days til kickoff!
In honor of Mother’s Day (which is this Sunday - take note, kids) let’s celebrate this unconventional mom. Don’t be creeped out - it’s a pretty beautiful thing what she did.

This is not the first time a team has done something nice for a young cancer patient, but this tugged at my heart strings. Instead of treating this like a publicity stunt or just something they “had to do”, the players get really into it. They do the same chest pounding end zone dances they would do if they had scored the game winning touchdown against their biggest rivals. Sure, there are some downright crummy things in this world and cancer certainly tops that list. But there are also some considerate folks like these Nebraska football players that remind us it’s not all bad. I’m sure it made Jack Hoffman’s day. It certainly made mine.
