NoMu – Yes Please!

During my various treks around the interwebs today I stumbled across NoMu’s website. Now you must understand, I am of the opinion that NoMu make the best hot chocolate in the history of ever. Every sip is an orgasmic experience. So imagine my delight when I discovered that the NoMu website is every bit as awesome as their delicious hot chocolate. The website is filled with the most interesting variety of recipes, and you can subscribe to their monthly recipe newsletter, which they will send to you in PDF format.

For those of you, like me, who never knew this haven of food ideas existed, you can download their previous recipe newsletters (again, in PDF format) from the site. To whet your appetite and encourage you to please visit the site, I’ve added one of their superb recipe PDFs here.

Woolies... sneakily awesome...

They did it to us when they rebranded and they've done it to us again! Have you SEEN the new (and yes, definitely improved) Woolworths SA website?

In true Woolworths fashion, the website is beautiful. Simple, elegant, clever and once again filled with beautiful photographs.

What I find exceptionally clever with their new online shop style website is how the "click here to start shopping button" takes you directly to the Grocery Cupboard section of the site. The focus of the site has moved away from clothing and is hitting groceries in a big way. The product images are big and colourful so you know exactly what you're ordering. I'm really impressed. I know, I know... I am a regular Woolies shopper, so it doesn't take much for them to impress me, but I also know a good, intelligent website when I see one and a lot of thought, time and I'm sure cost went into producing their new website.

The only thing I think that needs a change is that they need to get all of their product images on to the site, but otherwise 10/10 Woolies :) Well done!

Martin's site... it LIVES!

I had a hand in creating the design of this website, so I'm beyond stoked that he's got it up and running.
Check out his awesome website here!!!

If you're looking for a performance artist for your function, from birthday parties to weddings, he is your guy. He does all sorts of nifty things including juggling, fire dancing (of which he is epically awesome at), unicycling and a whole bunch more.

Check out his website!

An update on the Shoppe of Little Things design

Ok, I know I said I wasn't going to work on the design until I had spoken to Pat, but I couldn't help myself. Here's the updated design. I nabbed some design ideas, and the background pattern off the web. I prefer this because it's got more colour, and it feels more "artsy/craftsy/homey."

Little Shoppe of Things Website

During lunch I thought I'd start putting together a layout for my shop of things.
What do you think of the name and the design?

Remember that it's still a shell at this point!

This week's one made me giggle.
