Some new things I've learned this week:
I am a Domestic Goddess, please see below and sing my praises.
In other news, I don't know how to dispose of a pine tree, so this is permanent.
And NYC Trees does next-day Christmas tree delivery. Which is great if you can't make it 10 steps to your nearest tree-vending bodega.
The original concept for Lost was a TV show based on Tom Hanks' Castaway.
My great-great-grandfather had the darkest obituary I have seen in a while.
Finally, a lot of people have been Instagramming selected political cartoons of Dr. Seuss, but I feel weird not pointing out that he is not necessarily the political hero we all need right now.
