My O Favorite Things List Part 3 of ?

I like spending time doing activities that might be considered useless. When I still had classes, it was called "procrastinating" or "hey, where did those three hours go?"

So, I am doing it now since I have thought of some more items to add to this list!

Ahh, here it goes...

This edition pertains mostly to what I like doing on the Internet to spend long periods feeling a sense of accomplishment when all I have really done is looked at website posts, checked out pictures of food, read recipes, and watched videos. Here are some of the places (previously unmentioned in my list so far) I enjoy spending my Lost Hours... ;)

26. http://www.etsy.com/ - from handmade dresses to vintage jewelry to vegan treats. You name it, it probably can be found using the search. Disney themed necklaces? Eco- and vegan-friendly beauty supplies? Organic blueberry scones? Yes, all there.

27. http://engrishfunny.failblog.org - Who can't laugh at Engrish?

The related blogs (Must Have Cute and other Cheezburger Network pages) are also good, too. And these are similar as well:

28. http://www.foodbuzz.com/ and http://foodgawker.com/ and http://www.tastespotting.com/ and http://www.seriouseats.com/ and http://www.ctbites.com/ - ahh, food porn. I love food blogs.

29. Amazon Wish List - There is even an "Add to Wish List" function that can be added to your browser so that you can add items not on amazon.com. Amazing. It made Christmas/Birthday Gift List-making so much easier. And more fun.

30. Comics!
