GOODS has two meanings. Firstly, it is our guide to innovative objects from Brisbane and around the world, and secondly, GOODS can't be bad. A resource for gift buyers, home-makers, scene-stealers, trend-watchers and possibly even shoplifters, GOODS isn't about making your credit card cry, it's about setting your standards high.
For those times when you want to chew on a shoe or a bite into some freshly cut grass - Vanilla Lily has the antidote; in buttery, sugary cake form. These magical creations are far from your childhood memories of Asian bakery mock-cream Mickey Mouse cakes and even (gasp) a slice above Mum's prize-winning Women's Weekly birthday cakes.
I don't often have house guests. They eat my food, stink up the place, complain about the music, and forget to use coasters. P'shaw! Plus, I have to put pants on when they're over. So screw you house guests!
It's a shame though. The Tuthilltown Spirits in my cupboard would surely impress company.
Hardy Amies' greatest achievement is himself. Hardy Amies was a man. Hardy Amies was a spy, as well as a couturier who organised a Vogue photo shoot right after bringing down the Nazis.

As a non-smoker in a group of durrie-loving friends, I often find myself huddled in a shivering anxious ball, having been forced to leave the warmth and comfort of indoors for other peoples' bad habits. ‘Just one cigarette' always ends up being sixteen cigarettes. During a late night gathering at a pal's recently I cracked the shits and took matters in to my own hands, channelling MacGyver and crafting a DIY outdoor heater.
Let's look at beer like sex. When you first start gettin' some, you'll drink anything that moves.
After countless nights of indiscriminate drinking, your taste refines. Your lust for any number of cheap drinks is overtaken by a thirst for one GOOD drink. Hey, it's quality, not quantity, right?
The Micro Beer Club sends a set of 12 knockouts to your doorstep every month.
Documentaries are great. I could watch a documentary about a bar of soap. Seriously, how the hell do they make soap? I wanna know! And y'know who can show me? Documentarians.
I'm not trying to say that Madman's Arthouse Films series is as boring as a bar of soap - far from it! They feature some of the most cutting edge, interesting, and awesome artists, architects, filmmakers, publishers, and more.
