I would like some of this stuff, please.  Unfortunately I don’t have the time or wherewithal to head to the UK this weekend to get any, so someone please find some here in NYC for me, thanks.
Who on earth could say no to Alcoholic Toffee-Flavored Cider?  NO ONE.
Apparently, “Brothers Toffee Apple Cider tastes of sweet, alcoholic, bubbling apple cider with melted caramel stirred up inside, described quite correctly by the company as tasting something like “cream soda.” It was originally developed for Halloween, but was so popular the company now …

I think I know what I’m getting my hard-drinking sailor friends down in Baltimore for Christmas!
This design is amazing, and I can only imagine the spiciness of the rum to stand up to it.  Put a Beast in your Belly, for sure.

Check out more info on Kraken **94 PROOF** rum here.  Their website kinda rules, too.

In full disclosure, this is my other baby: the Storyboard Book.  I have been working on it a lot lately and felt like posting a little love for it here on my own blog.
I would have to say that it’s the perfect little notebook to carry around in your pocket or bag all the time.  I have a couple floating in my giant purse–mostly kept for list making, idea hashing, and postcard mock-ups.  Lately I’ve been drawing out the floorplans of bedrooms in the apartment and deciding what furniture, lamps, …

It’s designed and made by L2 Design Collective, out of Orlando and Pittsuburgh. You can buy it here, at Supermarket, and even read some press it got in the Daily News.

Wandering around the Brooklyn Flea in DUMBO on Sunday, secretly hoping to catch a glimpse of Martha, I came upon the Brooklyn Flea Design Co-op tent which contained a bunch of different designers inside one tent, with a little bit of table space each.
In the back, on the right I found Sesame Letterpress.  I really liked their designs and the feel of their pieces.  I’m actually not hardcore into letterpress like a lot of people, but it was nice to talk to one of the the designers (I’m assuming it …
