♥ Lady Gaga on how she took her happiness into her own hands and learned to say no {video}.
♥ Ten natural ingredients for DIY cleaning products. I use some homemade cleaners, but I really want to start incorporating more into my cleaning routine and I liked all the ideas provided here.
♥ A powerful story about the impact strangers can have on us. We have the power to be angels for each other.
♥ For the book nerds and/or designers out there, this is a fascinating collection of female book cover designers. I found it especially interesting to look for stylistic similarities in each designer's work. I'm glad that it seems like cover design is an increasingly important part of the book creation process. Go ahead, judge a book by its cover!
♥ F*ck changing yourself. Change is really about becoming more of who you already are and shedding the layers of expectations, judgement, and societal norms. See also: this Ask Polly column, which I think can apply to all human interaction, not just the pursuit of romantic relationships.
♥ Five authors and chefs share recipes for vegetarian one-bowl meals—Camille Becerra's looks almost too pretty to eat!
♥ An appeal to your humanity: "Unlike a reality show, this is not a game. There are no take-backs. No way to edit out an undesirable ending to this story. What we’re doing right now is playing Russian roulette with our country’s future. As a new mother, I cannot fathom that the discourse being played out on live TV is actually reflective of the world my child might grow up in." PREACH IT. I am driven nearly to tears when I think too hard about what certain candidates' popularity says about a significant number of people in this country. I don't think DT will win the election, but I also don't think the hate he's perpetuating and normalizing will go away either, and in many ways that's the worst part of this whole thing.
