For dinner at the new local that doesn’t have their alcohol license yet or taking some beers out of the fridge to bring to a buddies the “Sixpack” is an simple, yet innovative beverage carrier produced by The Netherlands based oooms. Granted I wouldn’t consider this a necessity, as a plastic bag can carrier a few bottle pretty well too, but sometimes you just wanna class things up a bit.

This Friday (01.15.2010) come on over to my ‘hood and find out who makes the best (insert Italian accent) meat-a-ball in NYC at the Meatball Slapdown. The event, being held at 100 Frost St., features five fine Brooklyn restaurants, including Frankie’s Spuntino, Bamonte’s, Roebling Tea Room, The Meat Hook and Roberta’s participating in the first-off of this planned annual event. For $75. at the door, or $50. via PayPal pre-order, you can indulge in the meaty, saucy goodness, complete with pasta and open bar. Don’t worry you’re gluttony and getting sloshed are all for a good cause, as all proceeds go to benefit Brooklyn Grange, a rooftop agricultural haven set for North Brooklyn.

As my Father pointed out to me, Heineken recently began re-broadcasting it’s walk-in fridge TV commercial. To coincide with the relaunch of the campaign, Heineken placed giant homeless mansions walk-in fridge boxes around, perhaps the only place high enough to believe these were from real fridges, Amsterdam, to make people think that the walk-in fridge from the beer makers ad was actually available for purchase.

Deep down most of us want to do our part and help others. It often seems like something that is too difficult to do, or a sacrifice that is too great. Knowing all of these things the charitable organization Robin Hood has created the “Stay In” event. It is simple make a donation to their cause of providing food to New Yorkers in need and sit at home with a discounted meal delivered via SeamlessWeb and a free movie via Amazon Video. Dig a little deeper in your pocket and you can add some free wine, or even Johnnie Walker Blue. Get involved here.

Perhaps the greatest invention of all time, or at least a quirky stocking stuffer, the disposable flask is being offered through Restoration Hardware. Having to deal with my expensive, monogrammed flasks being confiscated at concerts, sporting events, church, by police is now over! I can now feel confident with sneaking in my favorite beverage inside of these affordable alternatives to their metal brothers, without the worry of setting off metal detectors. I just don’t know how well the foil material can hold up to the power of sweet, sweet Jamesons. The Disposable Flask are sold in sets of 3 for $15.00 and are available at Restoration Hardware stores, or online.
