Sony 3D TV demo

L and I were at the mall yesterday and tried out the new Sony 3D TV's on display in Centre Court. The 3D glasses cost $150 and the TV's cost about $4500 (Canadian dollars). They come with a 3D transmitter that sits on top of the TV monitor. 3D looks REALLY good, the polar bears looked so real swimming around on the TV screen. Then the attendant switched to a world cup soccer match. It was so realistic, and even if you turn the 3D feature off to rest your eyes, the picture is still incredibly clear.

Here's a recipe I received from Life Made Delicious - General Mills Canada. It's on my list to try.

Tip
Kitchen Tip: If you don't have fresh asparagus on hand, use frozen asparagus cuts, thawed and drained. Don't cook the asparagus in boiling water; just add it to the casserole.

I heard those 3D televisions give you headaches very easily. That would be horrible if you spent all that money and could not watch it with the 3D
