Things that make me go "hmm."

Welcome to this week's edition of "Things that make go 'hmm.'" I had a ton of interesting links this week, so I tried to edit them down, but there were still just too many good stories to pass up. (And in honor of Mizzou playing Kansas today, I present you with an adorable baby tiger.)

Aww factor: “I tried to convince her to come up to California by asking her for her favorite fruit, vegetable and flower,” Monger explains. “I told her if she came to visit, I would have all of those growing in my garden. She said raspberry, carrot and sunflower.” (Spoiler alert: He kept his promise!)

How would you feel if you found out you didn't have cancer after you already had the mastectomy? Relieved, angry or a little bit of both?

Fruits and vegetables like you've never seen them before.

I realize this video is a little long, but if you have an extra eight minutes, you HAVE to watch this. It's a 160-square-foot apartment, but completely livable!
