Lin-greeni
It’s like sitting in green spaghetti (which has Roscoe’s vote) without the messy tomato sauce stains. But more so Owen loves that it's made entirely from recycled domestic waste… this little design gem is available from UK based Cohda as a limited edition so rush out and slurp it up pasta haste!

Flour Power
Roscoe recommends brownies for beating the blues… packed with endorphin boosting chockie and all organic ingredients (so they can’t possibly be bad for you)… and what better place to buy them than Flour Power City Baker’s stall at our fav foodie spot Borough Market…
(Roscoe’s also a sucker for word play, get it… Flour Power…)

Rock babies
Team radici's new fav blog with ‘tude is MumsRock.com ironic cos we ain’t mums but soo many friends are that we thought… hey… this is one way of keeping in the loop and seeming to know it all without the sleepless nights.
So mum or not it's well worth a read - the features are witty, edgy and well concieved (OK bad pun) - all the more so amazing considering the collective lack of sleep

Tea-tox time
Roscoe is rather a foody as you may have gathered over Chrissy (egg nog etc) and has managed to sniff out a cunning addition to the new year detox diet … green tea cupcakes from Crumbs and Doilies - green tea cupcakes are an integral part of a balanced detox regime right…right… and you burn off quite a few calories opening the beautiful box too.

Behind the Design... Amy Adams
Amy Adams of Perch! is the brain behind radici's stash of gorgeous eggy-like (OK Ovoid..if you must) bowls and mini bowls and the very fabulous shake a leg set... she's the latest to grant our Owen an inteview
Q:And who was your childhood hero?
A: My friend’s mom who taught me how to shuffle a deck of cards
Q: What tune do you whistle when you’re making tea?
A: Funny because I am the worst whistler and even my cat stares at me if I start.
Q: Which cartoon character do you most identify with?
A: I’ll say Lucy from the Peanuts because I can be a little bitchy.
Q: Would you wear knitted bathing trunks under any circumstances?
A: Sure, that sounds cozy.

Art Felt
Stephanie Metz is our new fav felter - she crafts the most exquisitely observed felt sculptures ranging from domestic beasts to teddy bears with a twist - some of it strays into the cote noir but it’s a refreshing change from cute gnomes
