Did you know in 1997 when Mattel introduced Becky Barbie, their handicap pink wheelchair bound doll, the doll wasn't able to fit into the elevator of Barbie's Dream House? Shiz is f'ed up.

CRIBS

Watching MTV's Cribs might go something like this: a hideous formal white living room with swirly suede couches and too high ceilings/ an over-the-top fish tank/ kitchen with granite countertops & a sub zero fridge (containing either organic food or grandmama's cookin' 0r their favorite packaged foods - all perfectly alined)/ movie room with black leather lay-Z-boys/ an "office" displaying memorabilia, awards, platinum records, photos of famous friends/ hallways strewn with portraits of...them/ a bedroom with a flatscreen TV and a bed "where the magic happens"/ huge closet containing their huge collection of nikes? stilettos? fur coats? LV bags?/ faux lagoon style pool/ ferrari, porsche, mercedes, bmw, escalade/ the view that reminds them to stop and smell the roses/ and a mock kicking out of the camera crew - BORING!

There is the rare gem though. My favorite Cribs episode features the home of Blink 182 member Mark Hoppus, a home done with thought, personality, and taste. It's a beautiful Spanish style home with an inside-outside kitchen, great landscaping (some even planted by him!), original art & collections, dark wood beam ceilings, wood sauna, and a modern hot tub with fiber-optics made to look like constellations. Check out his Simpson's action figure collection above and watch his full Cribs segment here: www.dailymotion.com/video/x7fyd_blink-182-marks-house

Oops. Anikke's bread fell into the fondue pot.
You know what that means! Kiss the person next to you.

I enjoy participating in the historical traditions and naturally forming homemade traditions that occur around the holidays. Our New Years tradition includes making fondue and crepes. 70's gastronomy to ring in a festive new year.

HAPPY 2009!

Oh my. Martha Stewart made a New Year's Eve bash for her cats. Cute or sad?
She noted that the goblets were even filled with sparkling water for a festive touch.
