Here is a Swedish one-page paperdoll:
A Big Congrats to Miss Angola.
Her response to the question in Miss Universe 2011 was perfect.
"If you could change one thing about your body, what would it be?"
"I would change nothing. I have inner beauty, and that's what counts."
I've paraphrased, so google Miss Universe 2011 and you can read more in depth.
Oh yes, and she won the title Miss Universe 2011!!
"If you want to gather honey,
don't kick over the beehive."

This next bee molds are just so perfect!
They are meant for cookies, I believe,
but you can also use soap, clay and other materials.
You should go hug your honey today!
and please, please, please
leave the bees alone, and they will leave you alone.
Bees are an important part of our eco-system.
