Naked Shake + Naked Cookie

September 6, 2022 by DaveLeave a Comment

Recently Naked Nutrition reached out to me to try several of their products including Naked Cookie and Naked Shake. One's eyes and ears quickly perk up when hearing about a business who is so bold as to choose the word 'naked' for part of their company name. Catchy names aside, this name is true to their philosophy focusing on essential ingredients, avoiding unhealthy additives such as artificial sweeteners, flavors or coloring - in essence, … [Read more...]

Personalogy – A Great Game for the Road

July 13, 2016 by DaveLeave a Comment

This compact interactive card game recently came across our desk - the directions as listed on the outside of the box seemed simple enough "Predict your opponent's answer and the reason why". It comes with a cool tagline to: "An Absurdly Provocative Game For Thinking People". And always looking for a much needed social activity in a world dominated by screens these days I was immediately intrigued. Three versions of this game can be chosen … [Read more...]

August 28, 2013 by Dave2 Comments

Recently a representative for Speck (maker of durable cases for a number of digital devices) reached out to me.

Sprout Watch (Reviewed January 2013) Affordable and Eco-friendly do not always match up in the same sentence - but they do when referring to Sprout watches. Sprout brings watchmaking into the current century for the environmentally conscious generation - their watches are biodegradable. The adventure watch we tested is contained in a case made of corn resin, the material behind the dial is natural bamboo, the strap is organic cotton and the … [Read more...]
