Table Design Ideas I Saw in Vegas

Here are some great table designs we saw in Vegas!

Natural Pharmacy

My mom sent this to me and I thought it was really amazing to think about...

A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... and YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.

A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All o f the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.

Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.

A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.

Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.

Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).

And here is one for the guys. Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.


Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.

Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries


Oranges, Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.

Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.

Collecting Wine

Kenwood Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County Artist Series 2004

93 points / SLO / only 2,146 cases made

Rich and spicy, intense and concentrated, with full-bodied currant, cedar, blackberry and black licorice fruit that's impeccably balanced and well-structured, offering firm tannins and vibrant acidity. Excellent length.
—James Laube

Why Collect This Wine? Sometimes what's on the outside of the bottle can make a difference in a wine's collectibility (see: Mouton). The David Lance Goines designed "Naked Lady" label for the 1975 Kenwood Artist Series, which depicted a reclining nude, was met with great resistance in receiving label approval from the then-titled Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and ultimately had to be redesigned. A three-bottle lot of the 1975 original "Naked Lady" label wine last sold in November of 2008 for $536.

The 2004 label celebrates the 30th anniversary of the series and was designed by Shepard Fairey, the artist who created the now famous Obama campaign poster. The 93 point score at a release price of $70 provides an attractive buying opportunity compared to other California Cabernets and offers perhaps another piece of wine history.
