Design: Wellness Skull Is a Sauna of Death
From the same guys that created the SlaveCity dystopia comes a cool alternative to the warmly lit, lavender-scented spa of the present—a giant skull with separate compartments for all your relaxation needs. The Wellness Skull houses a bath in its neck, a sauna in the head, and hot steam spouts at the eye sockets. There’s no pretentious receptionist or wind-chime music to help you chill out—stepping into the skull will instantly take away the worries of contemporary society and fill you with thoughts of life, death, and the emptiness of our physical selves. It’s like an instant dose of existential meditation.

1890s • Women at Kotatsu
Two women are sitting at a kotatsu, a low, wooden table with a heat source covered by a futon. One of the women is reading. Next to her is an andon lamp. It looks really cozy. You can imagine it is a cold day and that there is a little cat all curled up under the table in the warm comfort of the heater.

Okonomiyaki (お好み焼き) is a Japanese dish consisting of a pan-fried batter cake and various ingredients. Okonomi means “what you like” or “what you want”, and yaki means “grilled” or “cooked” (cf. yakitori and yakisoba); thus, the name of this dish means “cook what you like”. InJapan, okonomiyaki is mainly associated with Kansai or Hiroshima areas, but is widely available throughout the country. Toppings and batters tend to vary according to region. I need to learn to make this as the christening meal for the kotatsu. I think it gives me a sort of goal. have the table built and learn this by the time it gets cold enough to turn on the heater

Julia Child’s last meal was French Onion Soup. She died peacefully in her sleep of kidney failure soon after.
