I don’t drink coffee unless it is forced upon me, meaning that I’d never choose it myself, but if someone were to unwittingly give me a cup and it was good and sugary then I’d drink it, and probably enjoy it too. The funny thing is, I quite admire people that are really into their coffee, it’s an obsession that I can understand because there are so many variations out there now and so many different things that you can do with it. Also, being obsessed with coffee is a lot more socially acceptable than being obsessed with something like vodka.
Dear Coffee, I Love You is a blog all about knitting and crochet (no), and the design-minded writer has decided to branch out into the world of clothing via an IndieGoGo project (same principal as KickStarter). Essentially he’s doing pre-orders to kickstart the line and is up to 3/4′s of his $2,000 goal already so I’d think that he’ll probably make it. The three designs are all really nice (the fancy-type ‘Enjoy Black Coffee’ is also available on a hoodie) and I’d wear them despite my lack of love for the bean, so they must be good.
Continuing what appears to be a trend in the indie clothing community of blogs and brands shutting down, The Fat Seagull has become too fat and will be put down for it’s own good. As is often the case with blogging, they’ve just got too much other stuff going on to find to update the site, and so decided to shut down rather than keep it in limbo being updated every so often. No word on whether their archives will remain online indefinitely or what will be happening to the site.
You shall be missed.
I was drawn to this shirt because of it’s simplicity, it’s just a pleasingly straightforward image that says the two things that you need to make something tasty. I was completely unaware that Salt & Fat is also an excellent food blog that I’ve squandered a few minutes browsing just now when I know I should be focused on blogging not beets.
If you’re after food t-shirts, then it might be worth checking out this list of 200 food t-shirts I wrote a while back.

After the success and popularity of my previous list posts such at the
202 Star Wars t-shirts and
robot lists (and of course the ridiculously meta
list of t-shirt lists), I started saving up links of tees that fit into various categories, but there’s no point me just saving them up indefinitely, so it’s about time I started posting all these lists, most of them don’t quite breach the lofty barrier of more than 100 items in a list, but as they say, it’s not the size, it’s the amount of time Andy spent thinking up the metaphor.
As fasr as t-shirts go, few are more iconic than the design Milton Glaser created to help promote New York (the state, not just the city) back in the 70s. That design has gone on to be used in hundreds of different ways and become part of American pop culture, so it’s hardly surprising that the style has found it’s way onto more than a few t-shirts.
As ever with my list posts, THEY ARE NOT IN ANY RANKED ORDER, the numbers are merely there to keep track of the amount of tees in the list. I say this every time and no one seems to listen, it’s as if you skip the intro and move straight on to all the tees! Also, there are some affiliate linked shirts in there, so it’s possible I will earn money from people buying certain t-shirts on this list, but as I’ve listed just about as many as I could find, it’s hardly surprising that some of the companies have affiliate programmes. Some of the tees in the list are sold out already, and depending upon the success of this post some of them could become sold out in the future, but they could also be reprinted, so in many ways these tees are like Schroedinger’s cat before you click on the link. The list has been split into two pages to make things a little bit easier on my server, but please click through to the second page, because some of my favourites are on there and I think the list finishes pretty strongly, so they’re all worth checking out.
As ever, any exposure you can give to the list (stumble, tweet, delicious bookmark, blog post, digg, ill-considered full-back tattoo) will be greatly appreciated, and I’ll write up a thank you post with links back to everyone that helped in a couple of weeks. Now let’s go love some t-shirts!
