If you’re drowning in a dead-end job, your true passion is calling, and you would like to resign in the sweetest way possible… You can do what Chris Holmes did and do it via cake. At the time an immigration officer for the UK Border Force, Holmes finally realized his true calling, his new moniker “Mr. Cake,” and piped up this heartfelt resignation letter.
Very cool, and a lot more classy than a store-bought cake that says, “I Quit.” Those usually won’t get you a good reference.

If you like cured meats and own more than one book — then we’ve found your newest set of bookends. Animal Bookends are beautifully-designed by Arthur Yung. When holding books, they appear to be nothing more than two halves of a pig or cow with an unfortunate book-shaped mid-section.
But when separated, the bookends reveal yummy salumi inside. Maybe I’ll finally take up reading.
