Just when you thought Empire State of Mind spoofs couldn’t get any better than Stephen Colbert, along comes New Dork (Entrepreneur) State of Mind. This is SO San Francisco, it hurts. Thanks, Splendora.
While EZ Cracker might sound like something Chris Rock would say to Larry the Cable Guy, in reality it’s a device that helps us crack eggs. Insane. Do we really need this? No. Do we really kind of want it? Um, yeah. Just in time for all those Easter eggs…
p.s. The bonus EZ Scrambler? There are no words.
Sometimes, life is like a box of chocolates. Sometimes, you just feel like downing a box of chocolates. For those times, get your serotonin rush without all the calories with this classic I Love Lucy episode.

We love Apple. The iPod? Right on. The iPhone? Makes sense. The iTouch? Sounds a little creepy. But the iPad? Worst. Name. Ever. This video proves why. Hysterical. Funnily enough, the video came out three years ago. Guess Apple forgot to Google “iPad.” Or maybe they didn’t. Evil geniuses.

It’s still raining like cats and chihuahuas in sunny (liars!) California, but no matter. It’s given me time to perfect my recipe for the perfect rainy day. It’s quite simple actually, with only two (yes, TWO) ingredients. Can you guess what they are? If you said a Snuggie and Nutella, then pat yourself on the back because you are right.
My darling Hubs gave me a Snuggie this Christmas. When I opened it, I believe my reaction went something like, “Oh. What? Oh. Thanks?” Despite being the cliché of a girl who is always cold (I’ve been known to have goose bumps in 85-degree weather), I never saw a Snuggie infomercial and thought I’ve got to have one of those! However, it ended up being an ah-mazing gift. And, despite looking like Chewbacca in it (mine is brown), the Hubs actually uttered these words, “I know this sounds weird, but that Snuggie really suits you.” I believe my reaction went something like “Oh. What? Oh. Thanks?” He meant the brown color, which brings us to the other perfect rainy day ingredient, Nutella. No elaboration needed there. I love that he got me a Snuggie to match my Nutella.
You may feel more like Chewbacca, but you'll look more like Princess Lea
Actually, come to think of it, there’s a third ingredient for the perfect rainy day: a good laugh.
For the funniest review I’ve ever read between a Snuggie, a Slanket and other competing blanka-robes, check out this article.
Laughs aside, I have a Snuggie and it’s super soft and long and luxurious. Perhaps it’s a second generation Snuggie? Um, actually I think it is, as I just found it online. It’s the Micro Plush Snuggie Blanket
For the funniest parody of a Snuggie, you must watch this video. It might even be better than Nutella (blasphemy I know).
Do you have a Snuggie? Do you love it? Would you never be caught dead in one? Have you been on a Snuggie Pub Crawl? Have an ingredient to add to the Perfect Rainy Day recipe? Please share in the comments below!
Project Runway premieres tonight (10/9C — eee!), which got me to wondering about what past contestants and winners have been up to. Leanne Marshall had probably my favorite final collection of all the seasons, and it seems she’s only gotten better. Aren’t these pieces to die for? Leanne says her F/W 09 collection was inspired by the repetitive skyline of her new home-base, New York City, and the fantasy of glamour one has when moving to a big metropolis. Lovely.
You can follow her blog Petals and Waves and catch glimpses of custom wedding gowns she’s been making, as well as the new Spring 2010 collection (video above; pictures below). Pretty, pretty, pretty – and just peachy (love that hue). It’s also so great to read an up-and-coming designer’s honest thoughts, like “Sometimes this all just feels like a very expensive hobby.” So relatable.
Do you like the direction she’s going in?
I’m a big fan of up-and-coming designer Rebecca Minkoff and her handbags (see our interview with her here). Check out this FABtv Meet the Designer video where Rebecca shares her new Spring 2010 collection, which now includes clothing (yay!).
What do you think?
Ooh, finally something worth setting the TiVo for… Project Runway Season 7 is back (January 14 at 10/9C on Lifetime)! Even better, it’s back in New York. I love LA, but something just seemed wrong when PR wasn’t in New York. Don’t you think?
Check out this video sneak peek of Season 7 and meet the cast of characters here. “I’m stacked, packed and ready to attack.” This should be good…
