Five for Friday 115

Happy Friday,

This week’s links are an assortment of a few of my favorite things I’ve stumbled across recently.

The question on everyone’s mind, “What is Ricotta Cheese?

Exploration of the phenomenon of sand dunes. Additionally, a short history of White Sands National Monument, the world’s largest gypsum deposit. My husband and I felt like explorers on a strange new, very dry, planet when we visited last year.

How the movie Office Space forever changed one office supply company.

These two stories from NPR’s delightful ongoing anthem series.

Lastly, this cheery conversation with the witty Benjamin Dreyer, copy chief for Random House. His new book, Dreyer’s English is on my wish-list.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
