TweetShortly after Jarod moved in with me, we went out and bought some indoor plants. We thought it was a good idea at the time, but after owning these plants for a month, mine were dead (or almost there) and Jarod’s were thriving. Maybe if my plants had been sitting in these pots, I wouldn’t [...]

But I’ll bet that was the train of though that lead to the Slipper Genie Floor Cleaning Slippers.

Last year 350,000 cupcakes were baked around the country and this year the RSPCA is hoping that even more people take part in this yummy fundraiser. Getting [...]

TweetZilly Rosen’s undead take on the continuing cupcake craze isn’t released until September, but I’m putting this on my wishlist now! How could you resist recipes like Strawberry Blood Cupcakes and Rotting Flesh Lime Cakes? Apparently they give you theme ideas like gravestones, brains, rising zombies, eye poppers, 28 Cupcakes Later and Icing of the Living [...]

TweetWhat better way to start the working week than to reflect on the good bits of the week just gone? Or I guess you could just start your Monday morning by replicating the comic below (if you don’t already).

TweetI really like these magnetic vases. If we owned a dining table… and a table cloth, then I would totally buy some. But I guess for now I’ll just stick with the old jar I use on the odd occasion I am given flowers.
