There are millions of interesting things online and sometimes it can be very overwhelming but often it can be so enlightening. I really enjoy coming across websites, stories and tales of subject matter that I am, for the most part, unfamiliar with. Similarily, I love finding items, objects and creations that are different and heartwarming.
I thought I would share a few things I came across, this week, online. Maybe I'll start sharing once a week. Sean gave me a pretty journal for Christmas so maybe I'll start listing things and share them? We'll see!
So, for this week, here are things that caught my eye. Enjoy!

This documentary is intriguing for many reasons but instantly I realized I loved it because of the engrossing passion that this man has, for his craft. He doesn't spend his time talking about it with others, or questioning paths that similar chefs might be taking. He is fully dedicated and there is something impressive and ultimately simple about that kind of vision.
Of the many inspiring things that Jiro shares, one of my favorite lines is, "Never complain about your job."
Note: If you have Amazon Prime, you are able to watch the entire documentary for free! Huzzah!
JIRO DREAMS OF SUSHI

If you are a Downton Abbey devotee, you must be waiting on pins and needles {as am I} for the US debut of Season three. It's scheduled for tomorrow night, but since it is a 9-11pm showing {on the West coast} and we all have to work the next morning, we are taping it and having a viewing party, with fellow DA lovers, the following evening.
I found THIS article, in the WSJ and loved it.
It's nice to dream, isn't it?

I received one of THESE this week and haven't taken it off since.
Comfortable, cute and welcoming.
I recommend. And I recommend you considering the purchase of all three as you will want to wear them forever.

THIS cookbook has caught my eye. A friend, who is a wonderful chef in her own right, had us over on NYE and her husband cooked up one of the recipes. Man. It was delicious. She showed us this cookbook and I wanted to sit down and read it {as I do with all cookbooks}. This one was truly a beautiful book with captivating and colorful pictures and small, interesting anecdotes sprinkled in.
I might have it in my Amazon cart. Maybe.

Please share any fun things you have found, this week and have a delightful weekend! We are having family dinner, with the neighbors tonight, church tomorrow morning and hopefully enjoying the rain. Sean will be playing soccer, in the downpour, but I will be inside by the fire. Naturally.
Off to the estate sales!
