One Carrot Gold of the Day: A Swedish woman who lost her wedding ring 16 years ago was shocked to find it attached to a carrot in her vegetable garden.

Lena Påhlsson lost her priceless homemade ring after she set it on the kitchen counter to avoid misplacing it while doing some Christmas baking.

She had already resigned to a life without it when, suddenly, it resurfaced on the taproot of a small carrot she had yanked out of her garden and was about to throw away.

“Our daughter Anna was at home at the time and she heard an almighty scream from the garden,” Lena’s husband Ola told The Local.

Ola and Lena have a few theories as to how the ring ended up straddling a vegetable. ”We thought maybe it had fallen in to the compostable food bin,” Ola said. “Perhaps it ended up in compost that was spread over the vegetable patch later.”

The far more fun hypothesis however involves the family ewe. “Maybe it had been eaten by the sheep and then ended up in the manure that we then spread over the vegetable patch.”

Either way, Lena is ecstatic, but she can’t quite slip on her ring just yet. To put it gently, her ring finger is no longer the baby carrot it was in 1995.

Drunk Toronto couple arrested for having sex on subway platform at 2:30 in the afternoon
An extremely intoxicated couple were arrested Sunday afternoon after having sex on a southbound subway train.

“At about 2:30 p.m., a couple was seen by other passengers engaged in intercourse on the train,” said TTC spokesman Brad Ross.

Making no attempts to be discreet, the amorous couple soon prompted a fellow passenger to press the subway’s yellow emergency strip, which brought the train to a stop at Spadina Station. It took 14 minutes for police to arrive. In the meantime, as trains all along the north end of the University line snarled to halt, the couple staggered onto the platform to continue.

“The bodies of most of the models H&M features on its website are computer-generated and “completely virtual,” the company has admitted. H&M designs a body that can better display clothes made for humans than humans can, then “dresses” it by drawing on its clothes, and digitally pastes on the heads of real women in post-production. For now — in the future, even models’ faces won’t be considered perfect enough for online fast fashion, and we’ll buy all of our clothing from cyborgs.”

Ambulatory Amusement Ride of the Day: The Tiger & Turtle Magic Mountain in Duisburg, Germany, is the world’s first and only “walkable roller coaster.”

Designed by German artists Heike Mutter and Ulrich Genth, the 69-foot-tall structure features the same twists and turns found in a conventional roller coaster, but the loop-the-loops are, sadly, inaccessible.

Badass Bridge of the Day: The Moses Bridge, as its name suggests, is pedestrian bridge that creates the illusion of walking through water — in this case, the West-Brabant waterline near Fort de Roovere in the Netherlands.

Designed by RO & AD Architects, the bridge was built using Accoya wood, a type of modified wood that offers the enhanced durability necessary to sustain a sunken bridge.

Kickass Comestible of the Day: Spanish mommy blogger SandeeA has come up with a neat way to bake brownies inside an egg shell. Her site is in Spanish, natch, but you’re a cosmopolitan sort of guy/gal, so I’m sure you can figure it out.

(Here’s the Google Translate version in case you’re not a cosmopolitan sort of guy/gal, but would still like to bake brownies inside an egg shell.)
