I want it!

Looking around for a knife rack and came across this. Very cool and even though we have exactly 5 sq ft of countertop space…..I still want it. Wish it could hold any knife, instead you have to purchase it with the supplied knives.

Calise’s In the NY Times

Last Monday my wife and I attend a pretty great event at the Rainbow Room in NYC. It was an annual fund raising event for Mary Mount College in the city. Anyway, the MC for the night was Natalie Morales (vavavoom) from the Today Show (was supposed to be Ann Curry, but duty called in Darfur) and the honoree for the night was Geraldine Ferraro. So with all these fancy schmoes there, somehow we got our picture taken and were in this past Sunday’s Style section of the NY Times.

 

Attention All Foodies!

Here is a new Food site that just launched and it is what many sites like AllRecipes or CNET’s Chow have tried to do. It has plenty of user generated content from you sending in your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe to full vodcast. Check out Boy Eats World, well done cooking segments. Not just a camera on a tripod with the same static shot, like many vodcasts out there.

One great feature combines what I like to call “the crack of browser toolbars” Stumble Upon, into their site for you to stumble upon a recipe you might not thought of to make. Try it out, pretty cool if you have no idea what to make for dinner. Just click the Explore menu button.

Like many new sites out there it has a great, integrated Google Map so you can post reviews of a favorite restaurant in your area and the map highlights them all.

Check it out and let me know what you think, is this “THE” MySpace for Foodies or just a flash in the pan (no pun intended)
