I love lilacs.
Their delicate blossoms. Their fragrant scent. The beautiful shades of lavender.
I had a lilac bush up until the desolate septic project destroyed our back yard last year. It came from a start I got from my mom who got it from my grandpa. He enjoyed lilacs, too.
Spring without a lilac has not exactly seemed like spring.
So I’m making do today with some glorious substitutes for the real thing.
Light and lovely from Such Pretty Things

I just heard about a new social media site called Manteresting.
It’s like Pinterest, except for guys.
Instead of pins, they have nails.
Instead of boards, they have workbenches.
When you share a nail, you bump it.
How manly is that?
From what I can tell, the tagline for the site is Interesting. Man. Things.
A few minutes browsing the nails, shows it is in fact stuff men are interested in. Like cars, building projects, movies, jokes, sports, pretty girls.
There are also how-tos like how to properly tie a tie and what type of sunglasses to choose for your face shape.
There are also some things that I loved.
Like these Rules of a Gentleman.
I may have, in fact, liked it so much that I pinned it to my Pinterest Board for Captain Cavedweller.
If you have a man in your life who thinks Pinterest is silly or for girls, tell him to wander on over to Manteresting. I bet he’ll find a thing or two to enjoy there.
As for me, I might have to keep my eye on this site because it gives a writer a whole lot of ideas and insight into men in general.
