Liter soda bottles repurposed as daytime “lightbulbs” for shanty towns with little access to electricity and depressingly dark interior spaces.   Like with the LifeStraw, it’s always amazing to see such a low-cost change or invention that can have such a big impact on health and wellbeing.

Robert Shapiro on the Casey Anthony Verdict →
Yes, that Robert Shapiro.  Unlike the Nancy Grace-style slobbering, this is an interesting look at possible reason of why the jury came back with the verdict they did.   Even more interesting to me was one of the comments on the article that shamed Mr. Shapiro for ever representing O.J.

Onion Jam Recipes
I made onion jam a few nights ago with some extra Vidalia onions foisted on my (willingly) by my parents.  If you can’t tell from the name of my blog, I rather love onion jam.  Of course, I then decide to google new onion jam recipes after I make my batch, but I’m going to save them for next time: Sweet Onion Jam Onion and Rosemary Confiturra Basalmic Onion Jam
