Abstract City

Christoph Niemann’s Abstract City columns have been bound into a book.  I don’t often buy new books anymore, but I may have to save my pennies for this one.  His art is witty, beautiful and fabulous.

Grace-ful Star Wars Prequels

I’m even more so, now.  Someone leak this to the Internet now, damn it!  (Aside: These posters are of far better quality than the films they represent.)

Homemade Homes

These hand-built homes always inspire me. Shame I’m mechanically inept. (I’ve had a friend bar me from ever assembling Ikea furniture without his assistance.) He also said this about tools he used: “Main tools used: chainsaw, hammer and 1 inch chisel, little else really. Oh and by the way I am not a builder or [...]

Pides

Out for lunch with friends yesterday on the Danforth – one of multicultural Toronto’s most multicultural main drags.  We passed or stopped in at French pastry shops, Greek bakeries, Korean BBQs, and Ethiopian restaurants before our stomachs finally growled at us to pick a spot and eat.  Luckily, two of my friends recently travelled to [...]

A super-simple, probably very yummy ice cream recipe. Sadly, I’ll have to shelve this one for a week in which I haven’t overdosed on cookies and chocolate, and I just don’t see one of those upcoming anytime soon. http://chocolateandzucchini.com/archives/2008/02/super_simple_nutella_ice_cream.php
