Cadbury Creme Eggs Benedict: Well, ladies and gentleman, what we have here is more than just a “same name” puzzle on the Wheel of Fortune, it’s a breakfast treat — the Cadbury Creme Eggs Benedict. This glorious creation involves doughnuts, brownies, frosting, Cadbury Creme Eggs, and fried pound cake masquerading as hash browns. We’re literally tearing up thinking about it.

Skin Is Amazing: Carnegie Mellon University and Microsoft have teamed up to make “touch screens for our bodies” that they are calling Skinput. What does that mean?  Well, imagine a standard keyboard being projected onto your arm.  When you touch the “keys” with your fingers, Skinput uses soundwaves to determine what keys have been pushed – meaning that one day you could replace the keyboard in front of you with a light projection on your forearm.  But that’s not all, this could also mean huge innovation for gaming, mobile and the skincare industry.

Pizza in a Cone: I hope you’ve Scotchgarded your chair, because this will blow your mind. Opening yesterday across from the Empire State Building was K! Pizzacone, promoting “pizza on the go.” As its names suggests, this pizza is shaped like a cone. It starts out with a crust cone filled with cheese and your choice of a sauce or pesto; you then have the option to add more fillings. Congratulations, human race, you did it!
