SofiScript

    If your boyfriend decides to learn scripting,
    and you begin to worry that he might be spending more time with his computer
    than with you...
    and that maybe he might even like his computer more than you...
    and since he feels that way maybe he should just go marry it...

    Perhaps a nice alternative would be to instead
    have him incorporate you into the variables of his scripts.
  
    That way all the time he spends on that machine
    actually becomes a geometric homage to you!

    Kind of the pinnacle of geeky romance, no?

The Geometry in Your Dessert

    Have you ever noticed how much geometric inspiration
    can be found in your dessert?

    It's entirely possible that all of the baumkuchen I've been eating lately
    is to blame for this post but...

    don't you see it??

    whether it's that perfect rectangle of flan
    or that tantalizing triangle of torte
    or that still-warm square of beignet
    One of the best places to look for form and design inspiration
    is right there in your pastry
   This last one-
   (my one-day-old-half-eaten-chocolate-chip-bagel-birthday-cake-stand-in)
   probably doesn't count but will still hopefully provide you with some
   amusement/ food for thought.
    the moral of this story: don't skip dessert!
