I’m contemplating whether or not my coworkers would think I was quirky or crazy if I bought this and started wearing it to work. I’m required to have a badge, why not make it fun? Think I should?

Available for $9.99 at Target

Found this picture on Pinterest, but I don’t know it’s source. If you have any information to share about this adorable gummy panda, please post it in the comments and I’ll update it here!

Because it seems that Halloween has just become an excuse for young women to dress as a “sexy ____” where the blank can range anywhere from a Crayon to a Mrs. Potato Head to Snow White, I present to you a sexy panda…

Buy the costume for $62.99 here or just dress in a black and white short skirt/low cut top combo.

Anyone know where this is available for purchase? I couldn’t find it on the LRG site.

Panda poo isn’t just for kitschy gifts anymore.  Scientist presented an interesting study at the 242nd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society that suggests the microbes present in panda poo can be used to help make biofuel production a more viable option in energy production…

Who would have guessed that ‘panda poop’ might help solve one of the major hurdles to producing biofuels, which is optimizing the breakdown of the raw plant materials used to make the fuels?” said study co-author Ashli Brown, Ph.D. “We hope our research will help expand the use of biofuels in the future and help cut dependency on foreign oil. We also hope it will reinforce the importance of wildlife conservation.”

Yay pandas! Show your support with a panda poo t-shirt from Enjoi. Get one at PacSun for a mere $20.

Happy Friday!

The WWF had an idea involving pandas, the mall and one leaflet…

Does anyone know where this is available to buy? It’s so darn cute that I don’t think I’d ever put it down!

Thanks to the detective skills of my lovely readers (Bobbi & StannyG!) we now know that this little guy is named Bao Xin Chang and is the creation of the amazing soft sculpture artist Melisa Nichols. His eyelids, mouth and arms move and he’s made of mink. Of course this craftmanship and attention to detail will cost you. He’s currently up for auction at eBay and as of today (8/11) his price is a whopping $555.00 – and the reserve hasn’t been met yet!

If anyone feels the need to purchase this as an early birthday gift for me, I’d love you forever.

Baoding balls, that is! These balls aren’t meant to improve manual dexterity and relieve stress. For around $8.00 these can be yours…

Apparently a Poken is a small USB looking device that you carry around with you at all times and can collect contact information from other Poken users. While this idea seems like a good one, I’m not quite sure it will take off. Almost everyone has a smartphone these days which makes this a bit obsolete. Oh well, still quite cute!

Buy one here for $19.95 and spend your days searching for someone else who owns a Poken.
