It's the Weekly What? for Friday, January 4th
And so begins the long, dark tea-time of the soul...Here we are, it's another year all over again. The holidays are quite definitely behind us (so sad) and stores are already populated with displays of red and pink hearts (even more depressing). So what are we to do? Our plan is, basically, to keep our heads down and wait it out until March! Green beer will soothe the existential angst, right? Before you go back to the break room to forage for more coffee and donuts, take a moment to visit our Facebook page and answer this week's question! "What was the best vacation you ever had?" 
Music from trashThe old phrase "One person's trash is another's treasure" is stunningly demonstrated in this short trailer for the feature-length documentary "Landfillharmonic" about an orchestra in Paraguay that plays music on instruments made from recycled trash. It's simply amazing! >> From the Weekly What? Test Kitchen:How to make Ice Cubes! That's right... ice cubes. Don't scoff! The lowly ice cube is a veritable blank canvas upon which to create an endless variety of delectable, artisanal drink-cooling creations! We gave this recipe a run in our test kitchen and were were delighted with the results and we think you will be too! Make sure you read the comments! >> More from the file: "Is there anything bacon can't do?"We just about fell out of our chair when we saw this: A bouquet of bacon "roses." To call it "amazing" or "astounding" or even "beautiful" would be to engage in understatement. They're so easy to make, too! Here in the Weekly What? Test Kitchen the bacon roses never completed the journey from the pan to the rose stems! Nom nom! Say it with us: "bacon bouquet." >> How are we doing? Got a hot news tip? Something to share?

Kick your communications up a notch! >> The drive towards simplicity in brand identitiesHere's a gallery with tongue-in-cheek predictions for the future logo development of some global brands.
