s’mores cake (chocolate + malt + marshmallow)
I love pinning recipes onto my pin board, I like knowing that they’re always there for me to salivate over and hopefully one day attempt. I thought I would share some of the very delicious looking things I’ve been pinning lately. I would literally sing in the street for some of these bad boys, how’s the s’mors cake below – shoo!
Ok so here and there I have been seeing these bizarre old photos of pageant winners, but not your normal Miss America or Universe etc, no ways! These young ladies are snapping up sought after tiles such as Miss Hotdog Queen, Miss Posture, Miss Outdoor Health Queen (Can anyone explain this one to me?), Miss Sweater Queen, Miss Bobbed-Hair and lets’s not forget Miss Donut – now that’s one I think I would of gunned for back in the day. I find it so funny that such competitions existed and I kind of wish they still did because damn they are too funny.
Anyway like I said I saw a few and then I went on a search for as many ludicrous pageants as I could find, and find I did. So without further a due, I’d like to introduce you all to the winners….

These portraits are by a painter named Kris Knight, I think they’re pretty cool.
– Kris Knight is a Canadian painter whose work examines performance in relation to the construction, portrayal and boundaries of sexual and asexual identities. Drawing from personal histories of rural escapism through imagination, Knight paints disenchanted characters that are lost between youth and adulthood; they hide their secrets, but desperately long to let them go.
I went to the Free People’s blog last night to check it out and they have a cool section that shows you the insides of the homes of the people that work for them, I really liked this sweet little spot that belongs to their assistant design manager for soft wovens & print/colour. I like how you can see it full of personal and unique items and how it looks lived in and comfortable.

I couldn’t help myself, I found so many more cool photos on Retronaut that I had to do another post. I think I may be addicted.
Here is the link to the last one I did, in case you missed that blast to the past.
Levis is running a cool campaign called “501® Interpretation” that can involve you guys, if you feel like the taking up the challenge. They are celebrating their Levi’s® 501 range and they are asking fans to join the movement by tagging photos of themselves in their 501® jeans with #501 on Twitter and Instagram or by uploading directly at www.LEVIS501.com. From this collection, they’ll hand select the photos that best represent the energy and events of these times to live in a limited-edition “Book of 501®” as a legacy for the future. I don’t know about you guys, but being in a limited edition book is a pretty cool thing.
Check out some of the awesome photos they took for the campaign (2 below) as well some of the entrants so far. If you are thinking about entering then high-5, I think this book could do with some South African faces.
– The evolution of today’s 501® jean has been driven by a commitment to craftsmanship and quality. There isn’t a stitch on the jean that hasn’t been reconstructed and improved to enhance this timeless product, while staying true to its essential core. Look for finer fabric, reinforced stitching, larger pockets to store your latest smart phone, and updated belt loops, inseams and cuffs. We’ve done it all in the spirit of the original, with the same care, the same craftsmanship, and the same attention to every detail. It’s the same Levi’s® 501® as always, like never before.
This season, the 501® jean will be available in the same great fit in new colors including mineral red, chalk blue and ivy green. A lighter weight twill fabric offers an incredible, buttery-soft hand feel.
