Things that I consume that are so tasty, I must give them a perfect rating.
Alfie (movie). I had seen the preview for it, and wanted to see it. It looked like a sorta 'How to be a player' kinda flick. I had never heard about the original, so the plot was totally unexpected. It took me for a ride. Alfie chases after booty and the meaning of it all at the same time. I really loved it.
The Six Parts Seven (music). I originally saw these guys last year in Gville. They only played 2 songs before one of their instruments broke and they had to stop. In 2 songs, they convinced me they were fantastic and I bought their CD. I saw them last week and they are as good as ever. It's all instrumental, very chill music. Really ideal for falling asleep too, relaxing, or when you want something to listen to while your thinking hard. Their poster artwork rocks too.
Threadless (clothing). First I must confess that if you click on that, and buy something, I get $3 credit towards a shirt. If you've never heard of Threadless now is definitely the time. They are a t-shirt company that lets designers submit artwork (even I could!) and then they are voted on. If it gets enough votes, it is made into a t-shirt. They have some of the coolest, artiest, unique shirts that you will be sure every other kid @ school won't have. I bought one this summer and pretty much everytime I wear it I get some sort of compliment. To top it off, *all* of their shirts are on sale for $10 till Christmas.
Tater Tot Casserole (food). Now that link isn't exactly how I was brought up to make it but its the same basic idea. My dad prefers shooting enemies on his computer over cooking, so when its his turn, when I was growing up, he would throw together what has become one of my top 5 dinners. Basically you brown a pound of beef, drain, throw it on the bottom of a casserole dish, pour a can of cream of chicken (or mushroom) soup over it (no water/milk, just the condensed soup), spread it evenly, place tater tots on top, and bake @ 400 for 20-30 minutes (whenever the tots are toasty). One of the easiest dishes to make ever, but is ever so tasty. Seasoned salt works marvelously on top too.
Christmas (holiday). My favorite holiday, time, music of the year. My holiday has been a bit tainted in the past few years with some general bad luck, but I'm well over it and am impatiently awaiting December and everything that comes with it. The decorations, the family time, the shopping, the food. There is so much to look forward to. It also helps that I'm going to Chicago for Christmas (finally some snow again!).
So there ya go, things I whole-heartedly recommend. Is there anything you'd give 5 stars out of 5?

I was looking for an email address, but this is the only way I could find to contact you, so here goes...
I found your site through WilWheaton.net (a link to the sticker generator and "Steal These Buttons,") and I was very impressed by the design. I'm always looking for more tips on designing with web standards in mind, and I've learned a lot in the last 24 hours, just poking around here.
I've been pondering a redesign, and this place (and some of the linked sites,) have been inspiring. I'll give this site 5 stars out of 5.
