Lost (weekend)

April 29, 2007

This is an entry about TV with no comments.

It was a beautiful weekend, so N. and myself stayed inside and watched many episodes of Lost on DVD. Since it was so sunny, we had to block out the bothersome light using techniques we learned in the meth lab.

In praise of Bodum

April 25, 2007

This is an entry about Kitchen with no comments.

I’m a big fan of most things Bodum. They’ve made our French presses exclusively for over a decade, and their other coffee-producing devices never fail to excite (here, here and very much here).

This is an entry about Smaller things & Technology with no comments.

After work, my birthday was a little:

I made a PixelBlocks sheep today

April 21, 2007

This is an entry about Holidays with no comments.

N. gave me an early birthday present, since I was suffering from pre-birthday depression prior to going to Hot Fuzz last evening.
PixelBlocks: now no longer just admired in the store, they are part of the house collective.
Next: to convert every photo into a PixelBlocks creation.
