100 Ways You Can Start Loving Yourself Right Now www Radical Self Love is a big topic. Kind of daunting, actually. If you want to delve into it, where do you begin? Here are some ideas. To you from me, Pinky Lee! Make lists of reasons why you love yourself… & write down (or keep mental lists) of the compliments other people give you. Reach out to others… …& do it regularly. Think of a way you could make your life easier — then do it. Change the way you think about food. Stretch in the mornings. Really listen to people when they are speaking. Have media black-out days. Have that “awkward” conversation. Read through the results when you search Tumblr for “love yourself”… & be proud at the way this generation — YOUR GENERATION — is shaping up. Ask for help. Know that you are good enough ALL THE TIME. Find a mantra & hold it close. Print out Sark’s picture & stick it in your Radical Self Love Bible. Do your very, very best to stop judging people. Explore your sexuality. Express love in as many ways as you can. Wear sequins. Nourish yourself.
EDDIE ROSS - Pink Ombre Cake Here's a cake sure to sweeten up the Valentines in your life. Pick up three boxes of your favorite white cake mix—or work from scratch if you have the time—along with a bottle of Wilton's Icing Color in petal pink. Split each box into two batches for a total of six, then add increasing amounts of dye little by little until you achieve the ombre effect. For the outside of the cake, I used a piping bag fit with a basketweave tip. Happy baking, everyone!

How to grow a Rainbow Rose, Naturally In 2004, two dutch companies, River Flowers and F.J. Zandbergen, experimented and successfully grew a rose that had its petals rainbow colored. As petals get their nourishment through stem, the idea is to split the stem into several channels and dip each one in a different colored water. This way all the colors will be drawn by the stem into petals and resultant rose will have all the colors in it. Sources: 1, 2, 3 Watch: Flowers Color Time Lapse Popsicles!

The Elephant Cup & Blog Archive & Raspberry Craziness - StumbleUpon It’s so simple, it’s silly. Everyone has probably seen it or done it already, but Jessica just felt like stuffing her raspberries with dark chocolate and white chocolate chips today. As if the raspberries weren’t sweet enough. Death By Oreo Cupcakes They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried. A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. So, in this recipe there is Oreo's in the cake, in the frosting, and at the bottom is a Oreo surprise. That's right, you put a whole Oreo at the bottom of the cake. Ingredients 1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size 1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional) 1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box) 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract cupcake liners Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and cream cheese. foodsnots.com
