Winter produces some amazing colors, and though the photographs never do any justice to the way it really looked in person, I still try to capture the moment. This appeared last night (and through the power of FB, I know that some of my friends also saw it in person). For those who didn’t:

This was my view from our back door, through our walnut tree. The sky was the most brilliant shade of pink that I actually first noticed it while I was sitting in my office. The room got pinker and pinker, I looked out the window and scurried to capture it on camera before it disappeared. The winter sunset, though dazzling, is also fleeting.

By Aimee,

For one of my hubby’s Christmas gifts I got him a very cool thing called a Spacerail. He loves putting things together (especially if they are fun things), and he also really enjoys science and physics. He was pretty excited about getting it put together, until we saw the totally unhelpful instructions. Good thing my hubby is a genius or else this thing will never be built! After seeing the great instructions I took a look at the box and found tons of funny “Engrish”!

“Sometimes snail and sometimes scour, it is for adult playing indoors”! The entire text is full of great mistakes actually, but for some reason that was my favorite part. And below, some more funny misspellings.

A lot of you may already know about it, but I recently came across a website that is dedicated to “Engrish”, so I was kind of excited about finding some on something we owned! Most of the photos on the Engrish site come from other countries. Just be warned, you will probably spend lots of time looking at all the funny if you do visit the website. I know that we sure did!
