Keru Keru.

Cool kitchen gadgets knock my socks off. The latest is Keru Keru. Just pour your liquid ingredient of choice into the glass bottle and you’re all set.

The ideal product for those who like to whizzz around in the kitchen, whipping up multi course feasts, know that a table spoon of oil here and a bit of soy there is the standard procedure. One is constantly in need of some liquid and that means open bottle, close bottle, open bottle, close bottle and anybody who has ever spilled a bottle of Thai fish sauce know of the importance of a properly closed bottle.

Alice Chocolate.

I’m a true believer in the idea that when you pay for a product you pay for the experience it will provide you. Which brings us to Alice Chocolate and the sweet, matchbox-like package it arrives in and the cigar-like wands of pure chocolate held within. Lovely, lovely packaging.

Mankind is No Island.


Mankind Is No Island is a short film that explores a global social issue using nothing more than a mobile phone, found typography and a simple soundtrack. Last month it took home the big prize at Tropfest NY, the world’s largest short film festival.

Beautifully executed and sufficiently depressing. {Thanks Chris!}
