MMP loves BurgerFuel!
I vividly remember the first time I had a BurgerFuel burger. It was on a weekend trip to “Dorkland” to stay with my pals from school. Fittingly (seeing I lived in Hamilton aka ‘The bogan capital of the world’) I chose the Ford Freakout. Fricken delicious! A big sexy meat patty held in my hands [...]
You Should Be Into This: 5 for 5
PERSON: Public, not private This may be a bit anti You should Be Into This, but so be it. This month you should be into not being into the real lives of people you admire. By this I mean enjoy their art, their words, their buildings, their feats, but leave it there. I know its [...]
The city where people go to escape their lives
Barcelona is the city where people go to escape their lives that have turned into something similar to the routine of a worker ant. Living in this city you are constantly discovering new things, whether it’s an ancient building a few streets from your normal route home or a lively bar hidden behind the facade [...]

Just Kids – A Constant Friendship
I don’t really know what there is to say about this book, just make sure that you read it. Patti Smith’s latest book, about her relationship with renowned photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, published in 2010 and a New York Times bestseller is truly lovely, and not because it is wonderfully written or about particularly outstanding events. [...]
Complete from A to Zinc: Chance or Genius
Do you use Centrum? I don’t… but depending on my mood I have the feeling I could be swayed. Have you seen the joker on TV who advertises this stuff? He is the bastion of healthy health and looks so happy it makes me sick, but maybe on the other hand he makes me so [...]
