A Floating Dining Room





I was doing some foodie research and flipped out when I spotted this floating dining room that serves an intimate multi-course meal to 12 guests on the water. But sadly, it closes after summer and we're one month too late. Drat.

It stays afloat with the use of 1,675 plastic 2-litre bottles that were built into the floor in order to promote clean water and sustainable ocean life. Good news for the rest of the world... it will be traveling around to partner with top chefs across the globe. I'm hoping it will float on down to Mumbai soon!

Plan for the Weekend






Welcome to a year in my life. I have spent a better part of 2010-2011 trying to imagine a weekend where i will be propped in the BED all day long and just enjoy NOTHINGNESS... But little have I know that this would just be my dream. Really ?? Here's hoping a relaxed 2011-2012 weekend in beds... The reason why I am saying BEDS with an S - meaning the million weekend getaways I will be able to enjoy... love propping myself infront of soft hotel beds with TV, a fantastic view and some room service. Am I a spoilt child or what !!!

Minimalist Children's Story Posters





Always a sucker for reinvented minmalist posters. These ones by Chicago graphic designer, Christian Jackson, are no exception. They come with an amusing disclaimer:
Though these are posters made from children's stories, not all images are appropriate for children.

Most likely referring to the Wizard of Oz print!

Playing with Food








I've spent the whole morning chuckling over this series, Disparity, by Seattle-based photographer, Christopher Boffoli. He creates everyday scenes with tiny model train figures and admits that "there is in some part a god-like feeling to having command of an entire world, which you can rearrange at any capricious whim."

I used to play with my food as a wee one, but never to the extent of this. I really admire people who are able to maintain their childlike creativity, don't you?

A Proper English Wedding








I don't yet quite know who I am going to marry, or what he would like. Quite frankly Indians spend way too much money on Flattering their guests with extravagant stuff. I am one for small intimate wedding. But if someone said in your dreams where would you want to marry - I dont quite mind this PROPER ENGLISH WEDDING.

If budget wasn't a concern, I'd fly all my loved ones to England for my wedding. Just like Heather and Neal. They got married at the Babington House, a 16th-century manor turned hotel and spa, on an 18-acre estate in Somerset. They gathered their closest family and friends to celebrate over Thanksgiving day weekend. And drove away in a vintage Rolls Royce belonging to Heather's grandfather, an original producer of the 007 films! What an absolute dream.
