Yesterday while being distracted by various humorous and interesting tweets, Deedee914 posted a link to the absolutely amazing new food diary/blog, “My Cooking Diary” by Sharon Hwang. Not only are the recipes scrumptious, but the photography and site design is so simple, so clean, so inspiring. Sharon’s boyfriend Mike Matas took all the photos and put together this awesome little trailer for Sharon’s new site. You should also make sure and visit Mike’s site, as his videos, stop-motions and photos are out of this world, sometimes literally.

For all you science nerds, wood lovers, and modernists…check out the “Save Food From The Fridge” by Jihyun Ryou. A Master Thesis done on food preservation and how our relationship with food has changed the way we treat it, leaving us to use modern appliances for preservation rather than basic concepts.

Using simple “knowledge shelves” that are placed outside the fridge, Jihyun Ryou feels we can redefine our relationship with food, waste less and preserve energy. Pretty kick ass huh?

For a long time we’ve been wanting a spiffy new sofa. And not just any sofa, a sofa that looks amazing and is comfortable. Such a thing is not as easily attained as some may think. Our last sofa looked awesome, but after having it for just a year we realized how absolutely pointless it was. So out with the old and in with the new.

Tomorrow BoConcept, one of our favorite stores, is having a big sale. We have scoped the site and store for some time, trying to find the sofa of our dreams, but call us chicken, we have been to scared to take the leap.

They haven’t specified exactly what models are on sale tomorrow, but we hope one of our top favorites are in the line up. Here they are. What’s your vote?

Very modern and clean cut

Modern, bold and fresh

More traditional, yet clean

The ultra, chic “doesn’t need any explanation”
