Chocolate LP Records
A German man (recently laid off from a brewery) was able to make playable record lps out of chocolate!
Delicious.
Culture Club
What do sour dough, small beer and Orangina have in common? Well, they’re all alive!
I’ve currently made a detailed schedule that takes almost a month to complete.
I’ll be running around gathering ingredients and I’ll update soon on the experiment’s progress.
Additional posts to come in the meantime.

Cherpumple
Watch as Charles Phoenix makes the dessert version of turducken.
Cherpumple is a cake made of cherry, pumpkin and apple pie baked inside white cake.
I have to go, I feel sick.
Butcher’s Wife’s Pork Chops (Côtes de Porc Charcutière)
There’s something about the smell of pork chops on a snowy Sunday evening.
At a temperature of -17ºF last night, I wasn’t going anywhere. On TV we watched Les Stroud fend off polar bears, brave the arctic, and eat whale blubber. All while in his muck-lucks.
This recipe will warm you up and give you a good night’s sleep. (Especially if you drink a lot of the port).
Cabbage Soup – (Soupe de Chou)
Alright.
Now that you’ve gorged on food for the past four days and you’re sufficiently broke, what’s next? How about something cheap, light and painless.
Your poor little stomachs and wallets will thank you for this delicious, nutritious and inexpensive meal.
Insanewiches
A cruller sandwich? Yikes!
The day is painfully dragging on. Each minute is an eternity. You need something to break the monotony. So you log on to insanewiches. Ah, finally, some escape!
This site is a great time-waster for fed up foodies who need a little fun injected into their routine.
That’s right, now you can break up your day by being the sandwich shrink and diagnosing how loony you think each sandwich is! The higher the score you give it, the crazier it is.
Jello Mega Sculptures by Liz Hickok
Liz Hickok is a San Francisco-based artist working in photography, video, sculpture, installation, and currently, Jell-O. Her artwork has been exhibited across the country and is included in international collections.
The gentle light emitting from underneath the see-through sculptures makes absolutely gorgeous colours.
Some of the sculptures are recreations of Twin Peaks, San Francisco (including Alcatraz) and the White House.

Almond Pet de Soeurs (Nun’s Farts)
An elegant petit four with a not so elegant name. These treasures melt in your mouth while the snow piles up for Christmas.
You can find these all over Québec. I’m sure my Montréaler boyfriend will be upset that I made them while he was away.
Gorgeous Ovens
Check out these dream ovens sold by Rangemaster, Falcon, AGA and Rayburn. (This isn’t an advertisement, I truly think they’re awesome).
They would look awfully nice in my imaginary French country home.
Alcohol Pills
Remember watching the Jetsons when you were a kid and thinking how neat it was when they ate their meals in pill form?
Welcome to 2009. We now have alcohol pills!
Considering there is no taste or satiation in a pill, theoretically it could be quite dull. The only advantage I can see is not having to cart around heavy cases of beer.
The (g)astrophysicists are going to go ape for this, I’m sure.
“Russian professor Evgeny Moskalev of Saint Petersburg Technological University has evolved a technique that allows turning alcohol into powder and packing it in pills. The new technique can solidify any kind of alcohol, including whisky, cognac, wine and beer.
“Dry” vodka can be wrapped in paper and carried around in a pocket or a bag. Vodka in form of a pill would come handy at parties when “consumers” would be able to calculate their exact required dosage.”
