One of my boyfriend's friends' girlfriends recently bought a jar of Marmite while they were here visiting us in New York City. And she claimed that she likes to spread a little on a piece of bread for breakfast every morning, that she eats it on naan and waffle and pancake. And really enjoys it.

That picture of the office building is awesome. It looks, to me, as if the offices without the lights on have somehow run away from the building, leaving nothing but empty blackness behind as placeholders while they enjoy themselves for the weekend. Or perhaps the black hole offices were simply packed up by their occupants, neatly folded into themselves like those impossible-to-successfully-resmoosh tents or laundry bags. Do you know what I mean, those random items that are supposed to be so easy to cart around in small form and then - sproing - pop up and use in full-size and never, ever un-sproing in quite the same easy way?
