Grey’s Anatomy fans can agree there is a lot of drama going around ‘ol Seattle Grace as of late, with Izzie dying of cancer, her and Christina’s budding friendship, Meredith’s upcoming nuptials, Bailey’s shaky marriage due to her overcommitment at work, Callie’s bravery as she cuts off her father…. the list goes on.

But perhaps the most shocking thing to happen on the show this week was a cameo by one Spexy Spearmint Green PixelSkin case! Check out this clip of Izzie whippin’ out her PixelSkin-wrapped iPhone to snap a quickie of Merideth, as she trys on ugly wedding dresses. Merideth, how grown up you look! Speck wishes you the best in your marriage to Derek Shepard, just one word of advice; even though you want to make Izzie happy by letting her plan your wedding, don’t let her go all “Bride/wedding planner-zilla” on you! Own it girl. It’s YOUR big day. Dr. Meredith Grey, you make us proud!

Fitted Case Fits Professional Snowboard Photag’s Lifestyle!

From constant communication with the worlds top female snowboarders regarding when and where to shred the world’s freshest pow-pow, to staying in touch with her family and friends in Oregon, Professional Snowboard Photographer Christy Chaloux’s iPhone is constantly “off the hook!” That’s why she protects her darling while dressing it in a fancy winter coat-like Houndstooth Fitted case by Speck Products.

“I like that the fabric of my case makes it less slippery,” said Christy. “I’m always dropping my phone and juggling like 10,000 things- camera equipment and stuff- so the fabric hard shell really works for me and mi vida loca.”

Every winter, from around November to April, Christy leaves her home in Portland to jet around the globe capturing the world-class athleticism of Leanne Pelosi, Janna Meyen, Natasza Zurek and more of the world’s elite. Summers she spends on her skateboard, cruising the concrete skate parks of Oregon or in her hometown of Seaside, surfing with her dad. Recently, on a short break from her busy winter schedule, Christy squeezed in a quick skate session and happy hour with friends. While running out to her truck, her phone slipped out of her pocket, landing face down on a rainy Portland sidewalk.

“It was fine; not even a scratch!” Said Christy. “Thanks to my uber-cool Speck case!”

What exactly is Speck the Meat?!

speck-meat-iphone

Speck the meat was one of the great mystery meats of my mind for many years. I was intrigued, but didn’t know exactly what it was. A recent Flickr query for “speck iPhone” turned up this rad photo, and I was compelled to find out what kind of meat Speck the Meat really was.

According to Wikipedia.com: In the English speaking culinary world, “Speck” refers to Italian speck, a type of prosciutto, rather than German speck, which is identical to the Italian “lardo”. The term “speck” became part of popular parlance only in the eighteenth century and replaced the older term “bachen”, a cognate of “bacon”.

Right on. So it’s actually TWO different kinds of meat. Go Speck!
