Hasta La Gadget!

I can never decide which side I’m on. Autobots or Decepticons. This amazing gingerbread Optimus Prime has swayed me. It was made by a friend of a friend of Redditor downvotedagain.

We don’t know much about this amazing holiday treat. Not even if this girl is the one who made it. None of that matters. All that matters is that this is a thing. A really awesome thing I would like to admire and then eat. The detail is really nice and he looks like he could hold his own in an all out gingerbread robot fight. Oh yeah. I break me off a piece of that robot and serve it up with a nice cold glass of milk. It would probably take a month to eat this thing.

No icing though. That might be a deal breaker. Gotta have icing on your gingerbread robots.

How much would you pay for a ready-to-eat dinner? Most people wouldn’t pay more than five or ten bucks, but this luxurious food platter by Chef Charlie Bigham might just convince a couple of folks to change their minds – and their perceptions – of what TV dinners are.

Most of the ones you’ve already tried are probably of the frozen, microwaveable variety. They’re not all that bad, but they aren’t particularly good either. London chef Chef Bigham’s dinner tray, called “Swish Pie,” on the other hand, should be more than just delicious because a description of what it contains is already enough to make most people’s mouths water.

The finest British lobster, wild turbot, fresh diver-caught scallops, Balik smoked salmon and oysters, all poached in our exquisite Dom Perignon champagne sauce and nestled beneath fresh white Alba truffle, creamy mashed Yukon Gold heritage potatoes and a crunchy 24-carat gold leaf crumb. Served in a 24-carat gold leaf tray with an amuse-bouche of Beluga caviar.

To guarantee the safe arrival of the Swish Pie, each dish will be delivered in a bespoke aluminium case by a professional security guard – who will be handcuffed to the ready meal until it’s been delivered to its buyer.

The entire meal costs £314.16 or about $516(USD), and can be purchased from Charlie Bingham’s.

There are a lot of people one doesn’t expect to coming out of the TARDIS. Chuck Norris, President Lincoln and Nathan Drake to name just a few. Oh and a Creeper. I never expected to see a Creeper in the TARDIS. Get him out before he explodes!

This fun Minecraft and Doctor Who mash-up birthday cake was created by Curiaussiety Custom Cakes of Australia. Look at that Creeper just creeping. He is probably having a quick look outside to make sure the Doctor isn’t coming back, so it can safely blow up the console room.

Hey maybe that Creeper is the Doctor’s new companion. That would be pretty cool.

One of the things I really hate doing is going to the grocery store. It’s not only that it’s inconvenient, but it seems like every time I go I end up with a bucket full of stuff I really didn’t want. If you live in San Francisco, Amazon just launched its grocery delivery service in your town and you won’t ever have to go to the grocery store again.

The service is called AmazonFresh and it was previously only available in LA and Seattle. The AmazonFresh service requires a yearly subscription similar to what Amazon Prime requires, though this service costs a rather hefty $299 per year. You do get the benefits of Amazon Prime as well for the money, and that fee covers all of your grocery deliveries for the year – assuming you order at least $35 worth at a time.

Once you subscribe you can get all sorts of fresh produce, meat, dairy, and dry goods delivered to your door. The deliveries can come the same day when booked by 10am, and the next morning before breakfast when booked by 10pm. You can choose a 3-hour time slot if you’d like your groceries to be left on your doorstep in insulated bags, or a one-hour timeslot for attended delivery. Amazon will even bring the groceries into your kitchen and take away the bags or shipping supplies used for delivery.

This is the confectionery crossover that has so far eluded us on the TV screen. The Doctor and the Detective together at last. Both shows are headed by Steven Moffat, both characters are equally crazy and brilliant, and now they are a part of the same Christmas treat.

It looks like the TARDIS is not only bigger on the inside, but it also now bears Holmes’ address. 221 B. Baker Street on its side. This awesome gingerbread house was created by Twitter user Wholock. Get the name? I would have gone with Doctor Holmes myself, but it’s clever.

Two great shows, one great treat. Looks like these roommates enter through different doors. This is a show I would love to see.
