Great paper re-enactment of the Star Wars trilogy. Slightly condensed.
I don’t bake, but this new baking book from Ikea (yes, Ikea) Homemade is Best really makes me wish I did.

Kickass Cake of the Day: An xkcd-themed wedding cake by Denville, NJ-based bakery Pink Cake Box.
The top of the cake includes cutouts of the comic characters with a red heart on a wire between them. The entire cake is covered in white fondant with black thin bands at the base of each tier. Equations inspired by this comic decorate the remaining tiers.
I love xkcd wedding cakes / boom de yada boom de yada.

Best cake ever?
OMFG!

How Will You Measure Your Life?
Must read from Clay Christensen. One of my (many) favourite parts:
But looking back on it, resisting the temptation whose logic was “In this extenuating circumstance, just this once, it’s OK” has proven to be one of the most important decisions of my life. Why? My life has been one unending stream of extenuating circumstances. Had I crossed the line that one time, I would have done it over and over in the years that followed.
The lesson I learned from this is that it’s easier to hold to your principles 100% of the time than it is to hold to them 98% of the time. If you give in to “just this once,” based on a marginal cost analysis, as some of my former classmates have done, you’ll regret where you end up.
Whoa. Put this one in the dictionary next to the word “determination”. A french street artist who goes by the name of “Invader” makes pictures out of Rubik’s Cubes. Check out the completed version of this one plus a bunch more in his gallery, RubikCubism.
<3 Invader.
Christoph Niemann’s Abstract City is one of my favorite things on the internet.
