Crazy Christmas Commercial of the Week

Acura - The Season of Reason Sales Event

I want someone to make me a 60’s postmodern gingerbread house. Make that with postmodern furnishings. Kthx.

To: the House, From: Me

A good person gives gifts to all his/her friends and everyone in their family. A great person gives gifts to his/her friends, everyone in their family, and to their house/apartment/living space. This gift is sure to make anyone’s house, more specifically, kitchen happy.
I saw these at the story the other day and I thought it was really clever. Its an ice cube tray that produces ice cubes shaped like icebergs and Titanic ships. This isnt the only unique ice cube tray out there; from stars and arrows to tetris blocks and robots, they have something out there for any household.

Homemade with Love

The best gifts are the homemade ones. Like homemade (or homeknitted??) scarves. They can be custom made with the reciever’s favorite colors and designs. It makes it much more personal and special.

Don’t know how to knit? Crochet? Make anything with your hands??

Well, fret no more. A while back, I came upon some books that explain how to knit and crochet and include some other great projects besides scarves.

And no, this isn’t your mom’s stitching handbook. It’s:

 

for wanna-be knitters and

 

 

 

 

For wanna-be crochet-ers

 

 

 

This will save you a ton of money if you decide to make every single person on your list something out of yarn. Not only that, but you will have also gained a few skills in the process.

Box of Giambarba’s Chocolate

  There’s nothing like getting a box of chocolate for the holidays, especially if it was film designed by Paul Giambarba.
What?! Edible film??
Of course not. I was talking about Polaroid 100 Chocolate film designed by the legend Paul Giambarba himself.

This film makes this week’s Friday Favorite because of its sepia-like tones (but with more brown hues) that give the photo a nostalgic feel.
This is recommended for the old school photographers who shoot with packfilm cameras (like me).
Let’s see if digital cameras can produce the same results without using photo editing software!

Geek Out!

Can’t decide what to get your nerd/geek friend who has everything for Christmas? Well, Bloggins is here to save you. This month, every Thursday, el bloggo will feature a gift idea for your special geek. These one of a kind gifts are sure to please any geek or nerd, maybe even a techie.

Today’s special is truly one-of-a-kind:

  

The Geek Clock, exclusively at  UncommonGoods.com, is for that geek who actually paid attention in math class while you were watching the clock. Well, now the joke’s on you because of your inability to tell time using this clock. This gift will be a nice way of telling your geek, “I should’ve paid more attention in math class. Will you tutir me?”

Runner up for today’s gift idea:

The Prime Time Watch, also from UncommonGoods.com.  Prime numbers? Prime time? GET IT?!

The first Christmas gift guide post!

Hey it’s wednesday…you know what that means? It’s
Since today is Miercoles de Musica (Music Wednesday) its only appropriate to showcase a gift idea that revolves around music.
If you know someone with the latest iPod Nano (at the time of typing this, it was the 6th generation) then the hottest gift this season is the ‘watch case’. Below you will find the two main styles of the watch cases:
’the ‘Slap Watch’ case (Griffen)

and the silicon ‘Watch Band’ (HEX)
 I think they’re both pretty neat and I would love to get one for Christmas myself. It’s too bad I don’t own a 6th gen iPhone. Guess I’ll stick with my bare iPod Touch.

On this day, Mother Nature treated us with a light dusting of snow to remind us what in store later in the season.
Also to remind us Chicagoans that the winter PM parking ban is now in effect. Gaaaah winter is upon us.
