Our Internet is back! Hopefully it will last a bit longer this month.
Here is some cool stuff you might have missed . . .
(If you have some cool stuff you want to share, go ahead and e-mail me.)
1. Fandom Teas (part of Adagio Teas)
These. Are. Amazing. I want to stock every one in my tea room! Except, I counted over 200 hundred, and that was just as a rough estimate for you. There are over 200 blends! From Doctor Who to Firefly to Avatar: The Last Airbender to Sherlock to Supernatural to Lord of the Rings to Guild Wars. And breathe.
It is, alas, American (because they're just wacky like that) so shipping to yonder states is free if you're spending over $50, whereas we have to pay almost 50 bucks (25 quid) just to get it over here. There's a European site that's a bit more accessible, but they're missing the all-important fandom blends.
2. GEEK Magazine (a rebirth of GEEK monthly)
Look, a magazine for geeks! Also mainly in America. We here can either pay a lot of postage, or get the digital version, which is apt, sure, but not the same. Just look at those pretty, pretty covers. I'm going to wait until I'm not sharing limited Internet with a dozen others.
3. Superhero bleach dye tees (from the author of the lovely Dream {a little} BIGGER blog)
How easy do these look! And how good. If you have some cotton tees, freezer paper and spray adhesive lying around, then they're even easier. I don't, but you know how much I love tees . . .
4. Comic shoes (hundreds, but these from Star Wars and Wine)
[images broke, fixing . . .]
Another thing I am definitely going to give a go, some day. They must work, because enough people blog about them. And boy do they look stunning.
5. Print your own Map Envelope!
6. Lady Bonin's Tea Parlour, Purveyor of Magical Infusions and Tasty Curiosities
From a caravan! (And now, also, a shop.)
Who doesn't want one of these? Again, American. I have to go there some day.
To be continued. Because I've bought my Green Lantern comics, and the new Uncanny Avengers one, and must now answer the call of tea and an autumnal/wintery walk, and put on clothes that aren't my pyjamas.
Tomorrow, I'm making scones!
