Filed under: Celebrity Shopping, Real Estate Developments

The moonNow that's a gift. I have always wanted someone to give me the moon. Now they can.

Chelsea Football Club Owner and famous spender Roman Abramovich has given his girlfriend Dasha a truly celestial gift: 100 acres of land on the moon.

The land was purchased from The Lunar Embassy, which offers "deeds" to an acre of moon-land for around $20 apiece, as well as "Extraterrestrial Domain Names" and an opportunity to have your name written on an "Archival Disk" that will be stored on the moon.

Lunatic: Someone who has been staring at the moon too long and has lost their mind.

Nambé Luna Bowls

Filed under: Dining

Dean & Deluca is advertising these lovely Nambé Luna Bowls as the perfect wedding gift. The bowls are inspired by the phases of the moon and, as such have angled openings, rather than a rim that runs parallel to the ground. The look is brilliant, especially when the bowls are seen in a set. Nambé says that they are especially popular as salad bowls, given that the contents of the bowl are visible from the side due to the height of the edge, not to mention that colorful greens are probably set off by the silver-colored nambé metal. Each bowl is crafted by a team of 15 artisans using a time-tested sand casting process, then polished to the luster that the unique alloy is known for. They range in size from 1-5 qts. and are priced from $110-$320.
