Technology, Books and Other Neat Stuff

Oh yes, it is. At least if you're a dead Aztec.

We just discovered Montezuma's, the hoe of rather delightful organic chocolates. The bar of Geranium and Orange is slowly being eked out as it's far too good to eat in one go.

Highly recommended.
Oooh, they have shops in Brighton and one in Spitalfields...

While I'm recommending neat stuff, our favourite glass jewellery designer has just updated his web site.

We met Kevin on his stall outside the Ferry Building in San Francisco, and go back to see him regularly. He makes beautiful pieces of lampwork glass, using coloured Murano glass, and has designed his own silver clasps. Each time we meet him he has something new, and often they're quite unusual and beautiful.

I took some photographs of some of his work a while back.





I regularly wear a couple of his pendants - they're beautiful work, and the red goes really well with the deep green of New Zealand jade. I also have a couple of bead earrings for special occasions. marypcb has a selection of necklaces, earrings and bracelets.

He'll do custom work and can send it to most places. Contact details are on his web site.

I hope the person who has the black pendant I lost in Seattle a couple of years ago has taken good care of it

Remember that giant paper clip I got in the post last week?

It's now been joined by a pocket calculator. A pocket calculator that's bigger than my laptop...

Oh, and there's a new URL. Owned by the same people. I'm pretty sure that it's the teaser for an online office platform, and I'm pretty sure I know which one now...
