Things I Love: Limited Edition Lego Moleskin Notebooks!!

My Lego Moleskin notebooks arrived today and to say I was excited would e an understatement! Two of my favourite things in the world are Lego an notebooks so these are practically made for me! There are 4 different notebooks, each with a different cover design. There are two of each of the sizes (A5 and A6 approx) with the option of ruled or blank. They are made to the usual high standard set by Moleskin and all feature a built in pocket inside the back cover and a set of amazing Lego stickers! I got mine from the fabulous folk over at notemaker.com.au and you should too! (their shop is full of so much awesome)

Things I love: Wordle

This awesome site lets you make a word cloud from any text you provide, including the RSS feed of any blog or site.

The site also states that you can use your wordle for any purpose including those that generate a profit (think tee shirt designs) and they don't even require you to acknowledge them!
