• Petits-Pierres for Tuesday, March 4

  

  ♥ PRO MAMAS TO GO WITH YOUR PRO NAILS
  New adidas shoes that are probably really good for breakdancing or back support for your badonkadonk.

  ♥ FELT IS THE MATERIAL OF GODS!
  Hey-Sign in Germany makes all kinds of things with big, thick felt. Favorites include felt-covered books and these keychains which were swag (“shit we all get) from a convention a friend attended.

  ♥ ONE STOP SHOP FOR ONE OF KIND CLOTHES
  Tucked in St. Nicolaastraat here in the A’dam. Check out the custom designed umbrellas and make sure you say hi to my girl behind the sewing machine.

  Learn to cook Japanese home-style with Poco’s mom and cat.

  Oh SNAP! Something to jam to with my pro-nails and pro-mamas.

  ♥ WANTS + NEEDS WILL BE FULFILLED IF YOU PUT THEM ON PAPER
  Artists Justine & Christine paint what we and the whole of Oprah’s Bookclub who read, “The Secret”, are really thinking.

• The Best of Martha Stewart: From Her Home to Yours

  Somewhere between trying to do it myself and trying to get others to do it for me, I usually turn to Martha Stewart for inspiration and am always surprised at the amount of new shit (admirably) this woman can churn out per calendar year. Keeping in mind that Martha Stewart isn’t just about ideas (she’s about lifestyle), it shouldn’t come to anyone’s surprise that in 2008, there isn’t a product line left on earth to attach the Martha Stewart name to. This queen bee has cross-pollenated one too many times.

  Martha Stewart Custom Homes
  
  Good taste is being exported from Connecticut to places like North Carolina and Atlanta where these bastard clones of Stewarts’ actual estates are sprouting up. KB Homes has taken inspiration from the basic blueprints of Martha’s beach cottage in Long Island, her stone house on the coast of Maine, and even her house in Westport, to the ultimate Lego level. Customize any house with a variety of plans and sizes. All include interior detailing like molding and built-in bookcases, so that every decorative sea shell and first edition book will always have a place to be displayed.
  
  

  Martha Stewart Macy’s Kitchen Collection
  
  

  Getting back to the bread and butter of her business, Macy’s has also teamed up with Martha for quite some time now on a variety of kitchen products. Until now, I had assumed it was only Martha Stewart branded dinner and flatware, but actually there is an abundance of fantastic products and cheap prices like the igloo cake mold (pictured above and left), multicolored melamine mixing bowls, and collapsible colander. Best of all, many of the products can be purchased from macys.com and sometimes reflect the same in-store sale prices, online!

  
  

  Martha’s Vintage
  
  Not to be confused with “Martha’s Vineyard”, the summer playground of American royalty, Martha’s Vintage is a limited release of red and white wines available in Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Phoenix, and Portland, Oregon. I’ve already brainstormed the perfect ad for this product. Picture it – A grey haired woman gets up from the couch in tears after watching the most recent episode of Oprah, tops off the last drop off of a Martha’s Vintage into her mouth, turns to the camera and says, “Ignorance really is bliss. Merlot. By Martha’s Vintage”.

  The genius is in the mini-pixel icons he does for his larger work.

• Wii Cooking Mama Cook Off Has Been Shipped Off!

  

  Majesco has announced that they are shipping “Cooking Mama: Cook-Off” for the Wii to retailers nationwide. It’s got the same general format as “Cooking Mama” for the DS, but now you can finally prove to your mom that you really ARE a better cook than her:

  “A multiplayer mode lets budding chefs cook off in competitive mini-games to determine who can cook the fastest with the fewest mistakes. In addition, real-time effects lend authenticity to creations and help players determine when food is cooked to perfection.”

  You can also submit family recipes for a chance to win a limited-edition Cooking Mama apron here.

• (kinda) Re-Opens Today!">Mitsuwa (kinda) Re-Opens Today!

  

  And not a day too soon. The upside-down shampoo bottle trick doesn’t really work for more than a couple of days, let alone two weeks, which is how long Mitsuwa has been closed for the much needed renovations to both the food court and the grocery store. Unfortunately, after just coming back from a visit, it appears that the food court is still closed and the grocery store is limitedly open but with new scanners for the checkout girls. Let’s take a look and together we can challenge happiness everyday.

  THE STORY SO FAR

  

  

  Mitsuwa the grocery store re-opens today, but here is the image of the great “Sorry for the Inconvenience” poster they put up.

  TAMPOPO RAMEN STALLED TO BE REPLACED

  Rumor has it that the very popular “Tampopo” ramen is being replaced by a ramen chain called Santouka Ramen which is already installed in the Mitswa Costa Ramen.

  JAPANESE VIDEO RENTAL STORE ADDED

  

  What used to be a random room/hole that was really “picture machine-adjacent” at the entrance of the marketplace has been replaced with a Video Rental store. I know I don’t speak the language, but I like options.

  EVERYTHING ELSE THE SAME PLUS ONE GIANT HELLO KITTY

  I should’ve taken a picture, but I swear that retarded cop WAS EVERYWHERE. Like I’m going to steal shampoo and Yakult™.

  All the other stores were exactly the same except the TRENDY appliance store had a massive Hello Kitty in cellophane and a bow in the front of it that I don’t remember seeing, AND I’M PRETTY SURE I WOULD NOTICE THAT.

  More pictures to come when they fully reopen.
