Eric is the evil genius behind the highly tempting Do You Know The Muffin Man<\/a> blog, full of very tasty recipes and cooking info. He also uses Flickr to post fine photos of his handiwork<\/a> such as the buttermilk blueberry muffins to the right.<\/p>\n

(And, to be fair, I knew none of this half an hour ago, but I’m glad I know it now, and so are you. Really. Honest.)<\/p>\n

And Eric was kind enough to let me know that products from Jenaer Glas<\/a>, which I had reported earlier<\/a> was closing its doors, are now available from a new (Hungarian) manufacturer: trendglas<\/a>. A little digging suggests that Jenaer had been contracting out a lot of their production to a Hungarian glass maker<\/a> for quite a while, and the Hungarian firm has now acquired the Jenaer molds, etc., and will continue production of their line.<\/p>\n

\"Zyclo
\nThis is happy news for me, as I quite like the Jenaer bits that we own (like the Zylindro, now renamed the Zyclo, pictured on the left) but, being glass (even if very good glass), they will eventually break, and I was assuming that it would be the end of the road when they did. Of course now that I know that we’ll be able to replace bits I’ll go and break it all…<\/p>\n

And to round off a post full of shameless plugs, I’ll mention that we first hooked up with Jenaer gear through Adagio teas<\/a>, which remains one of our fave tea sources. We just got a big batch a few weeks ago, and I’ve been thoroughly enjoying some nifty new oolong<\/a> and white<\/a> varieties. <\/p>\n

Hmmm, the kettle’s just boiled – I’m off to make a pot…<\/p>\n

Thanks again to Eric for the happy news!<\/p>\nNo tag for this post.\n\t
