Link Love: 11.23.13

Unwoven Light by Soo Sunny Park

• Think your vocab is up to snuff? Try this tough vocab quiz. Then try the advanced one. For as much crap as everyone always gives me for using weird and obscure words, I didn't get 100% on either test.
• Wanna watch a robot paint the Mona Lisa by firing paint out of a cannon? You know you do.
• Things I learned this week include how the crossword helped (if we're using a very loose interpretation of the word) end World War II.
• These Burton-ized Disney Princesses are so perfect.
• My bookstore, Elliott Bay Book Company, made the list of indies to throw your money at this holiday season. Yay! (No really, throw your money at us. We're selling online too!)
• If you've ever watched a Disney film with me, you probably already know all these, but here are some of the true - much less warm & fuzzy - versions of the fairy tales.
• Kaelah posted this recipe for a Hot Butterscotch Cocoa cocktail and now I don't want to drink anything else for the rest of the winter.
• I always love when I find kindred spirits who feel the need to correct other people's  ignorance, so finding We Are Not Amused, a tumblr that trolls the Victorian tag and kindly corrects all the mistakes, made my day.
• I need Prologue Tea Company to be real. Now. Concept art this good should not be allowed online because it reminds me of what I can't actually throw my money at.
• I want this piggy bank.
• The 100 best novels as chosen in 1898. SO interesting to see what would still make the cut and what's painfully obscure.
• I love the idea of ghosting. 
• I need to visit these magical places in my lifetime, and the best part is I've already checked one (the glowworm caves) off the list.
• Stunningly beautiful food, at least on the inside. 
• Please say it's true: Monty Python is reuniting!!!
