Garden Party World
The new online kids’ game Garden Party is almost ready, and Victoria from Asylum was nice enough to send me an email introducing me to the beta. I checked out the game, which is billed as a safe, multiplayer world … Continue reading
Bertie Botts Every Flavour Perfumes
I saw this and wanted to share with you all: the site WeirdFragrances.com is offering samples of zany perfumes! I’m not entirely sure what their deal is, since the site says that the scents aren’t available for purchase, but the … Continue reading
