| Vinylville's Mac Laptop Stickers Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Vinylville definitely has the most clever handmade Mac-specific stickers out there. I just got my Snow's Revenge (pictured above and also available in white) in the mail, and I love it. You can actually apply these to any glossy surface, so I'm inclined to smack it onto my Subaru and put an Apple logo sticker in her hand, just so I can see Snow White actually in the snow. They have a number of awesome design offerings (see four other variations below), and you can also check out more of Vinylville's artwork on their Flickr page.

How-To: Basic Pickling with Kids By Kaytea PetroPickles are like potato chips, only better. The salty, crunchy goodness combines well with almost any food, yet pickles are pretty healthy. Vinegar pickling is one of the easiest ways to preserve foods for later; it's also a great way to add savor to almost any vegetable.Because they are so easy to make, pickling is a great project to do with children. By pickling, kids can learn how herbs and spices affect flavor, and develop an interest in cooking. Little ones with shorter attention spans and less motor control can help spice the pickles and pack the jars with veggies. Older kids can help clean and chop the vegetables. Tweens and up can mix the brine on the stove top, blanch the clean veggies, and even do the canning process.
