It is Stefani Germanotta's 25th birthday today (also known as Lady Gaga). I'm posting one of her videos as the Awesome of the Week as my way of wishing her a very happy birthday. Have a good one, Gaga!
It is hard to believe that my last trip to Niagara Falls was over five years ago. My bro and I went in early February 2006, which was a great time to go, as there were hardly any tourists and we felt like we owned the place. It was a little cold and misty, but that only added to the fun! That trip was my first time up the Skylon Tower and I have to say the view of the falls was definitely worth the price of admission. This photo was taken from the top of the Skylon Tower and pictures the American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls. Even in photos, I still find the view incredible!
Surfing Saturday: a weekly round up of some of my favourite links on the interwebs.
Send Some Love
Sweet and adorable cake-pop star Bakerella, recently blogged from the hospital that she is having a serious health crisis. Head over to her blog and leave her a comment with wishes for a speedy recovery. Get well soon, Bakerella!
Arts and Crafts
I have been surfing through some card making sites this week with my favourite being Card Positioning Systems. They post a design template and then show a number of samples for how the templates look as cards. It is amazing to see such a variety of designs - great for when you are lacking card making inspiration!
Having some fun with Dollar Store Crafts. They have tutorials and ideas for fun crafts to make on the cheap. Have a bunch of old cassette tapes? They have multiple ideas for crafting them - make a wallet, coin purse, or a lamp!
Fun and Games
The Infinite Cat Project is addictive and fun; just keep hitting "next cat" and enjoy the ride!
Don't have a buddy to play Rock-Paper-Scissors? Try out a simple online game here, or a sophisticated version here, where you can see what your computer opponent is thinking!

It's Tim Hortons Roll Up The Rim To Win time, and I rolled up the rim today and actually won!
After two requests to please play again, I was quite happy to see "Win Donut" on my cup this afternoon! It isn't exactly the car or the BBQ I would have preferred, but I'll take a doughnut! :)
I've also been playing Roll Up Roulette online, and so far I have only been winning "fun facts". The grand prize for the online game is "coffee for a year" which is awarded as $600 worth of Tim Hortons gift cards. Some friends and I worked it out and that could buy over 1400 doughnuts! Mmmm...Doughnuts.
