Evocatively

Available in six colors, each one so mouth wateringly vibrant that you will want to eat them like candy. Made by Spisani in Italy. Each polycarbonate tray with diamond shaped cut-outs comes in two sizes: 22″ x 18″ and 14″ x 18″. They run $250-305 here.

We planted a bunch of perennials in my garden over the weekend. I really want to put in a willow obelisk to kinda break up the space and give the garden some height. I thought I could having snap peas and morning glories climbing the willow and then surround the obelisk with some herbs. I'm shopping around and prices seem to be around $20-$30 for a 50" high structure. I like the idea that the willow is a natural material that won't be to jarring in my English cottage inspired garden.

"It's like, Letterman was trying to get the movie out there, but the only thing that's out there now is a crazy person with a beard making a fool of himself." —James Gray, director of Two Lovers, is still peeved at Joaquin Phoenix [Contact Music]

“During the sex scene I was luckily fully clothed, but he had to wear this skin-coloured nappy ... The director had to tell me, ‘Pull yourself together.’" —Keira Knightley on getting silly while filming her sex scene in The Duchess [Sun UK]

"I like these movies ... so I try to do them. I could care less if kids like me." —Seth Rogen isn't doing a good job convincing us that he didn't just do Monsters vs. Aliens for the money [MTV]

"I love Denzel. And for that reason I was interested in it. But I don't know how you can make a movie which you know the end result. The cat was out of the bag before it even began. For that reason it did not succeed." —Angela Lansbury isn't sure why they ever remade The Manchurian Candidate, either [Female First]

"It's about families in conflict, domestic disorder, domestic terrorism, the rise of a new religion, organized crime, corporate sabotage, racism of a colony-vs.-colony sort, drugs, sex, murder and, of course, ROBOTS. It's got elements of Rome, of The Sopranos, and still it's recognizably the BSG world." —Battlestar Galactica writer Jane Espenson on the new show, Caprica [Boston Globe]

"Not to sound too hippie-dippie about it, but there was a beautiful, communal vibe to the whole thing." —Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers on feeling the love at the inauguration ceremony [AV Club]

Want to pretty up your place but really could do without wallpaper? The pasting, the smoothing out, the shouting match between you and your significant other…it’s ok. We understand. That’s why we’re all excited about the mountable laminate panels that B&N Industries has produced. The Iconic Panels are way cooler than any wood paneling we remember from childhood and come in designs named Carnaby, Hitchcock, and even, Helvetica (guess what that one looks like!). The sixteen textured designs encompass a range of styles from pleasing curvy designs to wildly drawn lines that would give us vertigo if we had to eat breakfast near them.
