OMG... it's Toastabags

Use these reusable sleeves to make mess-free grilled cheese sandwiches in a pop-up toaster. 

Purchase via Wayfair

That caused an instant craving for a grilled cheese sandwich. Albuquerque grilled cheese lovahs, try Piggy's on Central/Washington. Fast, cheap and dripping with globs of melty goodness on thick Texas toast.

Just in time for Easter, the über-realistic chocolate skull by Marina Malvada. Cast from an actual human skull, Malvada uses “bone chocolate,” a signature blend of Belgian white and milk chocolate, to get that straight-from-the-crypt look. $200, plus shipping.

Behold: Tipsy glasses by LORIS&LIVIA

From the site

They look a bit out of shape, a bit wrong, just like the world around you when you get tipsy!

Reminders of the merry atmosphere in over-crowded bars, standing like happy cocktail lovers defying the laws of gravity, our glasses were put in a kiln at a very high temperature until reaching their melting point. The process resulted in a slow deformation of the pieces while preserving their original identity.

You can buy Tipsy from LORIS&LIVIA’s Boutique.

Behold: the Darth Vader Burger.

In honor of the release of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace in 3D, European fast-food chain Quick launched this new burger. 

Sadly, it's only available in France, where he's known as Dark Vador. 

May the black bun be with you.
