Have a Free Snack Box Delivered to Your Door, love from The World of Kitsch- Graze.com

/

Today the postman brought me popcorn, apple with toffee dipping sauce & two other lovely snacks in the form of my Graze.com box.

I've been a Graze.com subscriber for years now, back from the days when they used to include fresh fruit (which in the end proved tricky if your box got delayed in the post, as it wasn't fresh for too long)

The Graze Box has always been a healthy, natural alternative snack and its evolved into a something which is really my cup of tea. Literally, as one of the snacks you can receive is a lemon & poppy seed sponge with a tea bag for your afternoon break.

The Graze box system is straight forward. Pick which days you want a box delivered, choose your delivery point, work or even your office, and that's it.

If like me you love curry crackers with Indian chutney dipping sauce, but recoil in horror at the though of receiving a little pouch of chocolate raisins, that's not a problem either. When you sign up you can go through and rate the various treats, 'binning' the ones you definitely never want to receive. 

You can also rate the foods you 'love', 'like' or would wish were 'sent soon', although which four items you receive is always a little surprise (excluding the binned items, they will never send you those).

Want to try it for yourself? I have a code for you all to receive one free box, with free shipping. What have you got to lose? 

And if you like what you nibble, you can sign up to continue to receive daily, weekly, biweekly deliveries. A gift voucher for Graze could also make a novel Christmas gift for someone who is tricky to buy for. The novelty alone is great for big kids like me. Everyone likes getting post!

I Finally Have the Woman of My Dreams

/

I first laid eyes on Melanie in a coffee table book, 'Kitsch Deluxe'. Since then, and for the last five or six years, I've been trying to find her.

I found one of her friends, Nicole, a Jackie O lookalike, also by the painter Louis Shabner. I picked her up at a car boot sale for £20 or so, and she remains one of my favourite prints in the house.

Melanie though, just never appeared anywhere. She would pop up every few weeks on eBay, but always went for anything between £50 and £150, which I just couldn't justify spending when groceries cost so much these days.

About a week ago, about six in the morning, I clicked on my 'Shabner' saved search in eBay and there she was. Starting bid £0.99, Buy It Now £19.99
I would NEVER find her again at that price, so I just HAD to buy her. She arrived today and is as stunning & bright in real life as in the photos.

Now all I need is a Tretchikoff.

I was alerted to the existence of this fine piece of apparel by @edwinmcfee on Twitter.

If you want to get one for yourself act fast. Backstreet Merch sold out over night and have just sourced a few more for dispatch around the 14th December.
