Designy Coffee Sleeves
Food Buzz Designers and crafters are producing creative alternatives to cardboard Java Jackets. The designs range from a wooden cuff that doubles as a bracelet to knitted and patchwork sleeves with pockets. I wonder how long until Louis Vuitton and Gucci get in on the action.

Tea Espresso
Food Buzz A South African company has started selling what is being called "the world's first tea espresso." A special, patented grind of the tea leaves gives the tea "a rich espresso intensity." We actually saw a package of this at Whole Foods and it peaked our curiosity.

Starbucks Closes
Food Buzz But only for three hours. All American locations were shut down temporarily so that employees could, in the words of one mocking headline, "learn how to make coffee."

But he'll have to regroup to fight the chain's sinister "phase two of operation."

Handpresso
Food Buzz A portable manual espresso machine that works like a bicycle pump and creates a perfect cup of espresso anywhere, as long as there's hot water. If you're an espresso snob, and you like to go camping, this is the gadget for you! We want one for our disaster survival kit.
