SALT OF THE EARTH
Bacon-Flavored Bloody Mary Rim Salt
It’s Sunday. You’re not in your best shape. You have vague memories of an overly generous bartender, a
heated discussion about socialism and two guys named Cheech. You need first aid, preferably in Bloody Mary
form. Also, bacon would be nice. And the quickest way to accomplish those twin goals: combine them. Here to
help: Demitri’s, which solves your dilemma with a brilliant bacon salt made for just such an occasion.
Thank you, Demitri.

STERLING
Own Don Draper’s Desk
In a way, Mad Men is a super-effective commercial for smoking, womanizing and, of course,
mid-century design. And now, the actual furniture from the show is being auctioned on eBay—so you can
enjoy Sterling Cooper’s old curtains, desks or even a dress worn by Joan. If you know someone who can fill
it out, let us know.

COOL OFF
Going Vintage in the Kitchen
And because you’ll need a suitably old-looking fridge to match your new desk, we turn, naturally enough,
to Tucson. That’s where a team of furniture restorers—basically, the Hells Angels of
refrigeration—painstakingly labors over fridges to make them good as... old. You may have seen their
handiwork in Benjamin Button; no word on if their products also get newer as you get older.

THE THRONE
J.D. Salinger’s Toilet. Really.
Sometimes, you have a rare opportunity to own a piece of literary history. Other times, you just have the
chance to own a famous writer’s commode. This is one of those other times. What you do with this
information is up to you, but we’ll leave you with a warning: it hasn’t been cleaned. Who says he
didn’t produce any great works.
