Well-rounded.

Two of my favorite new things.

1. Die Antwoord.

Umm. Well yeah. These guys are on some next level shit that I'm still trying to wrap my brain around. Zef punk rap rave from Johannesburg. The first time I saw this video, I was somewhat disturbed, and rather annoyed by my friend A, who showed it to me. I was like, "great now I'm going sightseeing in quaint little Delft with that macabre shit rattling around in my brain all day." And rattle it did. Couldn't get it out of my head. So I gave in. This shizzle is the raddest, scariest, mind f*&$ng coolest stuff around. And the lady, ¥o-Landi Vi$$er, has just about the most baddest ass fokking look around. Who else can pull off bleached eyebrows and a razored mullet?, I ask you. Anywho, go check 'em out, just don't go crying to mommy afterward, ya wuss. Oh and to my BF who's been listening to them for a full friggin year without letting me in on the secret. Shame on you. I like to be cool too, ya know.

2. Knitted Bliss.

I've been knitting lately. It's very relaxing, and goes perfectly well with my fave podcast and a cuppa tea [by the fire of course]. I was looking for a good pattern for a huge chunky loop scarf and ta-daa! Little Miss Knitted Bliss was there to save the day.

Could this lady be any cuter or more adorable? And that shock of red hair! I'm gushing. Miss Bliss is the cat's meow, the bees knees, and the cherry on my sundae all rolled into one.

She writes all about knitting and her cozy life up in Toronto with her cute mans. Her blog is a great cheery respite from the doldrums of a hum-drum day, and great inspiration if you're getting into knitting, which I can't recommend more highly.

So yes. Punk Zef and Knitting. 2 tastes that surprisingly go great together. enjoy.
