http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOb18fFCfKQ

Micro Piglets are the new pets of the future...they have become a craze in the UK and are going for only $700. They make great pets...they are just like dogs...very loveable and smart. Apart from they are easier than dogs...they only eat twice a day and need lots of water...they dont need to be walked either..they are very content just hanging out in the house. These little micro piglets are bread so they wont be over 14 inches in height.

MADE IN CHINA



Imagine a future when you can learn about the origin of every product before you buy it. Would you second guess your purchase if you discovered that the bag you want was made by migrant workers in a sweatshop? US-based Baggu thinks so and they're leading the charge with an assortment of beautiful and reusable bags that are "Ethically made in China," according to the tag on each bag. Their phrasing probably seems like a smoke screen to skeptics who want to support their local economy and are dubious of Chinese imports. However, Baggu's promotion of their fair labor practices elevates the importance of knowing more about what you purchase. We hope that this kind of tag transparency, coupled with advances like Good Guide's iPhone app, continues to empower us with instant product information that will make us all more ethical consumers.

What first attracted me to this book was the design and color on the front. The use of rainbow streaking color across the words is very effective. "How design can transform your life, and maybe even the world"...These are the words on the front cover which are very captivating and pulls the audience in making them want to read more.


Indoor Fire

I've been dying to install a woodburning stove in my apartment, partly because it's always freezing in here, and partly to capitalize on the free fuel that will be littered all over the sidewalks of Manhattan come December 26th. Every year after Christmas, the sidewalks are covered with discarded Christmas trees for about two weeks, and them's good burnin'.
While you can find plenty of woodburning stoves to buy--even on Amazon--most of the good ones start at around $1,000, and the fancy-schmancy cooking variants that have ranges and ovens, like this one below, go for around $4,000.

Tea Time












Fellina Sok-Cham's bamboo serving tray has inserted bamboo saucers and little spoons with a modern design that creates almost like a net of holding place of the cup. this is a great way to serve espresso, tea or deserts. It is great to bring out at parties and people as it is unique and handy way of serving. Also to serve deserts in an attractive way that looks very prepared and neat. The bamboo = great material. Also it is dishwasher safe and very affordable at $45 on the MoMA store or $36 for those people who are members. Next weekend i will be going to MoMA and look for this in the gift store!
