This Cake Only Slightly Stretches the Truth

Just in time to celebrate Portal: Still Alive coming to the Xbox Live Arcade later this year is this adorable new handmade charm that would be the perfect adornment to your favorite accessory. While the beloved Companion Cube typically basks in the glow of the spotlight, this time around it is the mouth-watering cake getting all the love. For only $4 you get a teeny tiny slice of the culinary treat and you even get to choose if you want the connecting loop on the top or the side. I think it’s safe to say this was a triumph. I’m making a note here, … oh forget it.

I Wear My Controller Around My Neck

I am strangely addicted to video game-themed jewelry, but you knew that already. Remember my beyond adorable Guitar Hero necklace? I loved it so much that I had to order another item from the same store, this time a custom pink Xbox 360 controller necklace.

Quality is just as high with this necklace as my last one. It is insanely detailed, down to the d-pads and the guide button. She attached colored beads (that coordinate with the button colors) to the side of it, a little touch that I simply love. This piece cost me about $20 total including shipping and handling, which is well worth it considering how often I sport it. Skybluebunny, the creative force behind these tiny gaming-themed pieces of jewelry, accepts custom orders so you can always send her a message via Etsy if you absolutely can’t live without something like this. I know I certainly can’t.
