Ok, so, posting about my love of Japanese merch reminded me of a little shopping trip Christian and I took in Munich last year.
I was visiting C and his wife and they were just wonderful hosts. Christian poured me a soda one day and, knowing how much I love iced beverages, he plunked this baseball of an ice cube into my glass. I was totally dazzled. (I'm a cheap date, folks...)
The ice ball was made by pouring water into an ingenious silicone mold and then freezing the bad boy. Once it's solid, you just slip the two parts of the mold apart and peel the bottom from the ice ball. Because of its size, it melts more slowly than small cubes, and looks super sexy while it's doing it.
I oohed and ahhed and interrogated him about where he acquired such a fancy product and he gave up the intel pretty immediately. The next day, we were off to Muji where I purchased two of the molds.
They now reside in my freezer, ready to wow whomever needs impressing.
In keeping with the theme, Bob and I had a lovely lunch in Little Tokyo today. I stopped in a cute little discount store and bought a few things, including some origami paper that made the perfect addition to my photo styling. If this site somehow becomes a money maker, I've kept my receipt so I can deduct the buck fitty.

Its always easy to give it up for you. INTEL that is. Well... at least here on the Ham.
I found some more interesting food-in-a-box to send. You might get it for summer.
