Garden statues come in all shapes and sizes, but this one I found is rather more ambitious than most.  “At 22 feet long and 11 feet tall, this Jurassic-sized replica is the largest sculpture we have ever offered! Realistically sculpted with rows of menacing teeth, a fearsome tail and scaly skin, our prehistoric artifact is cast in quality designer resin and hand-painted with powerfully convincing color and texture. This display-quality sculpture transforms any home, garden, restaurant or hotel into something truly magnificent!” The quote is from a highly critical article on this monster that is supposed to be a Tyrannosaurus rex.  Here’s some more: “I mean, come on, who in their right mind would want such a terrible mockery of a dinosaur sitting out in their yard? The only, and I mean only, possible use for something like this is to place outside your neighbor’s bedroom window at 2am and then tap on the glass. Does that justify the $7500 you’d have to spend? Uh, not even close”.  Read more.. (Please note that the dinosaur shown in the picture is not the one described in the article.)

The title of this next item is “Grass Lamp Reminds You the Grass Is Always Greener In the Country” which almost sounds like a haiku and is just about as useful.  As the author explains “While you can’t grow a crop of tomatoes in Marko Vuckovi‘s Grass Lamp, the grass will flourish under the lamp’s light and remind you the grass is always green—in a country house”. Read more..

Finally a useful tip. Maybe this is common knowledge, but I have not seen it before.  Simple instructions showing you how to dry herbs in the microwave. Could be useful at this time of the year.  Read more..
