…IHOP hears a Who?

IHOP Horton Hears A Who

Remember when you were a kid and things like sugar coated Horton Hears a Who-Cakes (Pancakes covered in frosting and sprinkles with a lollipop stuck in the top) sounded delicious?

Yeah, me either, but for a limited time, IHOP is serving up a Horton Hears a Who!-inspired menu for those that still have a mouth full of sweet tooth’s.

Featuring Who-Cakes (the frosting coated concoction mentioned earlier), Beezlenut Splash (Sprite mixed with Jello pieces), and even Green Eggs and Ham, it’s a kid’s menu only type of deal, but for the intended market, I’m sure it’s a must get.

Hurry though, because it’s only available for a limited time!

Los Angeles Times

The Los Angeles Times’ food section is a great source for new (and delicious) eats.

If you’re not a frequent reader of the Times, then check out their list of The 10 Best Recipes of 2007 for a quick look at their best of the best.

With “succulent pork ribs with a spicy chipotle sauce, sweet zucchini braised to a buttery softness, the miracle of a Meyer lemon posset (like a mousse but with livelier flavor and a more elegant texture), and a spectacular summer pie packed with nectarines and berries” all on the menu, it should be easy to find at least a few new dishes to add to your recipe collection.

…It’s Website Wednesday: Splashup?

Splashup

Splashup is “a powerful editing tool and photo manager. With all the features professionals use and novices want, it’s easy to use, works in real-time and allows you to edit many images at once. Splashup runs in all browsers, integrates seamlessly with top photosharing sites, and even has its own file format so you can save your work in progress.”

Splashup Editor

Basically a free, online version of Photoshop, I was instantly impressed by how well Splashup works.

Open the editor, and it feels like a desktop application. Response is quick, it has a proper menu, and it integrates with your computer like it’s supposed to.

One of the best features of Splashup is the ability to import images directly from flickr, Facebook, Picasa, the web, and your computer, With a few simple clicks, you can import a photo, make the necessary edits, and then save/export the photo back into your site of choice.

Splashup Tools And Services

With the ability to edit multiple images at once, pixel-level control, layers of depth, and more, there’s not much that you’ll miss if you’re stuck in an online editing world.

Ready to give it a shot?

Then sign-up, load-up, and start splashing.

…Mac menubars can display the date?

Mac Menu Bar

With a bit of clever menu manipulation, you can finally force your Mac to show the date in your menubar using System Preferences.

  1. In System Preferences, open International and go to the Formats tab.
  2. Next to Dates, click the Customize button. Arrange your date in the format you want to appear on your menubar. Use the down arrows on each element to choose between formats. (January, Jan, 01, 1, etc.)
  3. Now, select the entire date format and copy it to your clipboard (Cmd+A, Cmd+C). Hit OK.
  4. Hit the Customize button next to Times. Choose the “Medium” format.
  5. Paste the date format on your clipboard next to the time format, and hit OK. You’re done!

It’s not exactly easy, but it works, so there’s now no excuse for not knowing the date.
