An Ode to good donuts and good design. I especially like the curve of the lid covering my coffee and image explaining the difference between a latte and cappuccino. A Dukin Donut makes it a good morning.

A Dozen Web Design Resources for Blogs and Portfolios.
I’ve absorbed some good web design recently. I found some resources to share. If you want to start your own website but don’t want to start from scratch, I would suggest using cargo collective. If you want to start blogging, I would of course suggest Word Press. Both look great, are customizable, and have people willing to help you out 24-7.
Bellow are links to generate ideas for the look you may want.

Dirty Sink has a Logo
This logo is based on a sink in my grandparents home. I think it works well in a large format but I am thinking I need to simplify the smaller one, similar to what Potbelly does for their logo. I like the sink in my favorite colors. I’m open to any thoughts about it or how to improve it. Is it readable, does any area confuse or bother you? Thank you for your opinion.
