I’m not really a Scrabble player; I like the occasional game, but I can’t say I’m really any good in it. Still these simple Scrabble necklaces are just gorgeous:

You can get it at Heist’s Etsy store for $45.

Pwetty! I’m completely in love with vintage keys at the moment, and am still looking for something like this as a necklace:

It’s £8 on the V&A website.

This is a little bit weird and creepy, but at the same time I love how this looks. OctopusME is an Etsy seller who specializes in sterling silver cast octopus parts… made from actual sushi grade octopus. I think it’s gorgeous, but at the same I’m a bit creeped out by it.

Here are a couple of her designs:

There’s nothing better than chocolate to cheer you up on a miserable day. Add a pie chart to the mix, and you’ve got the Math Geek in me drooling over this:

An actual Chocolate Pie Chart! With 70% dark, 20% milk and 10% white chocolate. You can get it for $20 on Chocolate Editions.

I’ve tired wearing hairbands with stuff on them, like roses and butterflies, but they also end up looking silly. But this hairband could look super cute!

You can get it from the V&A online store for only £14!

I’ve never really gotten the whole Moleskin thing. I mean, I love notebooks and own tons of them, but I’ve never seen the appeal of specifically the Moleskin notebooks. They don’t seem any more special than any other notebook, right?

Well, this line of Moleskins might just convince me to finally get one. They came out last year October some time, but somehow I managed to miss them. The Passion Moleskin collection is specially designed for your life passions; so far, there are six different categories: Book, Film, Music, Recipes, Wine and Wellness. Each journal has dedicated pages for the different passions. For example, Recipes has 6 separate sections for appetizers, first courses, main dishes, side dishes, desserts, cocktails, while Film has alphabetically organized sections to fill in.

I do like the idea of these, but I still would really want to see these in real life before getting one. Especially the Film and the Book ones seem appropriate for me, but I wonder how the pages exactly look like and how they’ve been labeled.

Each of the journals are available on the Moleskin website for £15.99.

These boxes are just too cute!

The designs are burned in with a wood burning tool and stained in a golden oak finish. The bigger box is roughly 5×5 and the smaller box is roughly 3×3. On the etsy site there are multiple designs for the smaller box (mushroom, fire plant, gold star, etc), but I couldn’t figure out if you can specify which design you want or if this is done randomly.

The boxes are available in the etsy store gogita724 for $25.00 plus $5.00 shipping.

I haven’t been posting much lately, mainly because I strained my arm during the holidays and sitting behind my laptop only makes it worse. This entire post is now being typed with only my left hand… freaking annoying. Anyhow I’m going to try to get posts out on a regular basis, but I also have to try and give my arm as much rest as possible.

I love slightly quirky, not that normal jewelry and this pocket watch definitely fits that description! For the math geeks among us:

Here’s a cheat sheet for if you don’t know what all the numbers stand for:

1 – Legendre’s constant is a mathematical constant occurring in a formula conjectured by Adrien-Marie Legendre to capture the asymptotic behavior of the prime-counting function. Its value is now known to be exactly 1.
2 – A joke in the math world: An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The bartender says, “You’re all idiots,” and pours two beers.
3 – A unicode character XML “numeric character reference.”
4 – Modular arithmetic, also known as clock arithmetic, is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers “wrap around” after they reach a certain value. The modular multiplicative inverse of 2 (mod 7) is the integer /a/ such that 2*/a/ is congruent to 1 modulo 7.
5 – The Golden Mean…reworked a little.
6 – Three factorial (3*2*1=6)
7 – A repeating decimal that is proven to be exactly equal to 7 with Cauchy’s Convergence Test.
8 – Graphical representation of binary code.
9 – An example of a base-4 number, which uses the digits 0, 1, 2 and 3 to represent any real number.
10 – A Binomial Coefficient, also known as the choose function. 5 choose 2 is equal to 5! divided by (2!*(5-2)!)
11 A hexadecimal, or base-16, number.
12 – a radical

The watch is available for $85 on UncommonGoods.com.

My lunch of choice when I eat at home is soup and some bread (or hot noodles), so this tray set would be perfect for me:
