Another buddy of mine, John Reider, recently launched a great new product he calls teknobubbles. A new twist on an old favorite. His bubbles glow in the dark with a blacklight. They have been used in places like Disney and Universal Studios. And he also sells them in small bottles for kids of all ages.

Chop't Salad

My friend Jules, who lives in NY came across this trendy new restaurant concept. It's called Chop't, a creative salad company. Basically, a fast food, salad restaurant. Lots of homemade dressings, and lots of unique toppings. You design your own salad, they mix it in a bowl, chop it up, and serve it to go. It reminds me of the marble slab ice creme concept, but with salads. The environment looks modern and exciting. They say they chop it because it tastes better and it's just fun. They even make salad sandwiches.

The Coffee Log

Just went to the health food store and saw the coolest thing. Firestarters made from coffee grounds. What a great idea. It was a log of compressed coffee grounds kind of like the duralog type product. I use these things when I'm camping or starting fire in the outdoor firepit. Haven't tried the coffee one yet, but I'm sure they smell better and I guess their better for the environement too. I'll give it a shot. Wonder what else you could use to make those logs?
