This is a post ode to fellow blogger, Mona Alice Oakenfold. Through a previous post, its safe to say she is a bacon lover. Bacon vodka is just that, vodka infused with bacon. It may or may not appeal to the masses, but it exists. Thanks to McAuliflower over at Brownie Points, here is the recipe. The recipe is very fail-safe, so anyone can attempt it. One great suggestion that really stood out was making a bloody mary with the bacon infused vodka. On a side note, I am wondering if Mona Alice Oakenfold has had bacon wrapped dates aka meat candy yet?
Huh…did none of her peoples think this was wrong? In a new Ortega commercial featuring Paul Hamm, Morgan Hamm and Shawn Johnson, they’re selling the aforementioned Ortega taco shells. Here’s a transcript of her line incase you’re still shocked over the video: “My tacos the best. I love Ortegas taco sauce, it makes my taco pop!”. “Makes my taco pop”! Jebus, shouldn’t her peoples have caught this?
My palate normally doesn’t accept sweet and salty food in the same sitting. However, the original post from Neatorama had me ask the same questions. Is this really the perfect combination? And do you cut up a slice of steak and eat it simultaneously with the strawberries? Or are the strawberries just a form of dessert? Well after some googling, I found this recipe with the same ingredients that sounds like a real winner. I’d actually like to replicate whats on the billboard at home with a flank steak, some fresh strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
My jaw simply dropped when I saw this. Food and my all time favorite pair of Nike Running sneakers go hand in hand like music and wine. Olle Hemmendorff along with 7 other creative folks were requested to give their intepretation of Nike Sportswear. Hemmendorff, of course was blessed with the AM90s as his theme. At this point, I don’t know if I’d want to try and recreate this or request a higher resolution to print and frame on a wall.
The Electrolux was designed for those that want a next level dinner party experience. Guests are encouraged to cook for themselves. However, the group can also work together and delegate roles as one may have a specialty in stir frying and another may enjoy grilling. Either way, the Electrolux provides a fun dining experience. Designer, Chris Fox, also wanted to make cleaning simple. Simply detach each of the individual plates and rinse. And afterwards stack them on the included cradle. I really need one of these in my life.
Ahhhhh shiiiiiiit! It’s time to get yo’ drink on. Available from Urban Outfitters is this crazy beer belt holding contraption. This sturdy nylon belt feature 6 plastic cup holders, sized to fit cans or bottles. Forget about ever having your beer mysteriously disappear from the fridge at a party, it’s time to rock them shits on your hips son.
I last mentioned about Joey Roth’s Sorapot back in November. I was competely mesmerized by its form. The newly redesigned Sorapot comes in a mirror finish that can only be acheived by hand polishing. In addition to the newly revised Sorta pot is also a pair of insulated glass tea cups. Finally, there is a teak finished cradle for the Sorapot. The mirror polished Sorapot is available now, whereas the tea cup set and cradle will be released in Fall.
Make the leap to see shots of the tea cup set and cradle.
If you’re sucker for attractive packaging like myself, Hint Water should pique your interest. Currently, they are offered in commercial fridges along the West Coast, but are also available online. For personal reasons, I’d stay away from the honeydew-hibiscus. However, if I had to choose a poison, it would be the watermelon, cucumber, pear or tropical punch.
