Another Tiny Kitchen video on homemade pizza. 

I dreamed a dream...

You may have already seen this but it is worth watching again. It's sure to put a smile on your face.  Susan Boyle on Britain's Got Talent

Earth Rocks!

Cooking with Clara

I love these videos of depression cooking with Clara. I don't know if I will make any of her recipes but it is inspiring to rethink how we eat. They cooked their own bread, grew their own vegetables (and saved seeds from the veggies), and ate lots of potatoes. My grandmother, who passed away last year at age 93, served potatoes with every meal. Usually boiled in salt water. As a kid, I got in trouble for not knowing where our potato pan was (in fact we didn't have one and I still don't know what one is, but she thought it was preposterous that someone wouldn't have a potato pan). Learn more about Clara here.

Mermaid Tales

Weta Workshop artisans did a beautiful job creating this mermaid tale for double amputee Nadya. What an incredible experience for the designers and especially for Nadya. You can catch it in action here.

Tiny Kitchen

The Tiny Kitchen segments hosted by Jill Santopietro (a nytimes recipe tester) are encouraging, inspiring, and amusing. She prepares everything in her tiny ny city apartment, that is 11.5 sf (they must only be counting her usable counter!). The first video is for a Calvados cocktail: The Normandy (I've taste tested and it is delicious). I look forward to see what else she serves up. (image from New York Times)

Puppy Bowl V!

If you like cute and puppies then you'll love the Puppy Bowl aired on Animal Planet. I probably would have watched it if I had a tv or cable, but instead I must satisfy myself with clips. My favorite is the one of the chinese crested streaker! (image from animal.discovery.com)

The Pmuppet Show

I love these videos by Capucha of her family... this is one* of my favorites. Capucha, can I move in?

* Perhaps influenced by my love of the muppets!

UPDATE: Sadly it seems my favorite (The Pmuppet Show) is no longer available, but you can still find some videos here.
