Sushi fanatic Doug Lambrecht wanted to make his sushi experience as authentic as possible, so he vowed to grow his own wasabi.
He headed to China and Japan, where he learnt the art of growing Wasabi which requires year-round contact with chilly moving water, so a sloping stream is pretty much the only bet.
Then he headed to the North Carolina mountains and began to grow his own. Five years later, he had his first harvest.
Hence Real Wasabi, Doug’s mission and business, which offers organic, real-McCoy wasabi (a.k.a.
Wasabia Japonica) in one of two forms: dried powder or fresh rhizome. The rhizomes, the plant’s thickened stems, are chilled and shipped overnight.
To serve, grate in a tight circular motion. Then pack the shavings down into a pile and cover for about ten minutes. And, as they say at Real Wasabi, Resist the urge to shorten this timeframe.
Grate yourself a little green pile of love at www.realwasabi.com
I so want to get one of these!

That’s right! It’s here faster than I expected!
MakerBot Industries brings to us affordable 3D printers which would allow people to create almost any plastic object.
CupCake CNC is the company’s main product. It is made from a fully open source design that can be freely downloaded, and the CupCake takes digital design files as its input and produces 3D objects by building up layers of plastic.
The machine is sold as a flat-pack kit that can be assembled by two people in a couple of days.
The best part is that it can even make its own replacement parts! (But how’d you know which part you’d need and when? hmm)
You can create your own designs from scratch using CAD software, or download a design file from Thingiverse, an online repository for the sharing of open source MakerBot designs.
3D printers usually cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Surprise surprise! The CupCake CNC kit is going for only USD 750.
It’s even cheaper than a 2.13 GHz, 128 SSD, 2GB RAM Macbook Air.
(hmm maybe i can make one using the CupCake CNC……..)

Might as well do it in style.
With DirtyRottenFlowers, you can send dead flowers albeit with a touch of style to your arch nemesis.
Above is the trademark Dirty Rotten Flowers bouquet.
If you are feeling less generous, try the Morticia, for decapitated roses to be sent.
Or…if you want to spark that dead relationship again,
try the Still Alive bouquet
Available in Red, White and Yellow, they are perfect normal flowers to re-ignite that bond you had!
However, Still Alive is only available in the LA region.
Hope it helps, even a little! =)

Noticed anything out of the ordinary on these Chanel models?
It’s the inking of transfer tattoos on the models’ arms and legs!
Developed by creative director Peter Philips, Chanel will be selling packs of the tattoos with 55 different designs, online for US$75, starting 1st March.
I think Chanel is pushing this envelope a little further in, it’s a thumbs down for me..I’d rather you buy solid, fade-less, Chanel accessories.
But if you have to get those tats on your arms and legs, or if you know someone who will be loving these, then if you’re in London during March, you’ll also find them stocked at Selfridges.
