Our Top 5 Favorite Home Accessories from Lakeland

While I’ve never been a big fan of catalog shopping, I’ve since discovered that Lakeland is pretty much the coolest catalog in the world. Admittedly, I don’t understand what half the things in the catalog do, or what they’re for, but I still find it quite fun. If you’re looking for a fun catalog to look at while eating a sandwich on a lazy Sunday afternoon – this is it.

Sock Zombies: Perfect for the Zombie Lover on the Go

God, I love me some zombies. Their shuffling gait, their glassy-eyed stare...their constant and insistent request for BRAAAAAAAAAINS! The problem with zombies is, you know, you can’t take them with you. Oh, I don’t mean in the “can’t be seen in public” way. I think great advances have been made in zombie acceptance in recent years and zombies are, for the most part, welcomed into the homes of all but the most intolerant of citizens. It’s just that they’re incredibly difficult...

Tasty Quickie: Posh Sausage and Mash

This Friday whilst perusing the Covent Garden Night Market, I got myself some rather tasty looking Wild Boar and Apple Sausages from the fine English Game butcher, Manor Farm Game. Being as these were not just any old sausages, but sausages made from an elusive medieval beast which is naturally low in fat and cholesterol, organically reared mere miles from London in Buckinghamshire, I decided I should do something special with them rather ...

Top Five Most Annoying Kitchen Accessories

While I rarely do any proper cooking or baking, I have an unjustifiable love for kitchen accessories. (Perhaps this is linked to my love of eating.)
