tonkatsusan st. james



susan saint james made from tonkatsu sauce.

i adore susan saint james. not only did she make me feel more confident about my stick straight hair when i was a kid but she also rocked both "mcmillan and wife" and "kate & allie"

max factor



max from "sam and max" made from max factor powder.

leff and i just got the new "sam and max" game. we'd been waiting for it to come out for-EV-er. (ok, it wasn't like "duke nukem forever" forever, but you get what i'm saying.)

so far, we're pretty happy with it despite its glitchiness.

gingifer saunders



jennifer saunders made from ginger paste.

"french and saunders" and "abfab" are two standbys at casa rakkaleff. this is possibly why so many people think we are secretly british.

yellow belly



tanya donnelly formerly of belly made with yellow food dye.

all of these years later i'm still not entirely sure what "feed the tree" was supposed to be about. (although, yes, i've heard it's supposedly a metaphor about commitment and respect).

i can, however, tell you from laaaaaaame experience that in the early '90s in kvegas it was occasionally used as a pickup line. a horrible, horrible pickup line that never worked and would cause my friends and i to leave the bar.

colonel mustard paste



colonel mustard made from mustard paste.

i've heard that the new versions of clue have gotten rid of the col mustard character. that's such sad news on veteran's day.
