Round Museum

Baseball is in full swing, and if you are of a certain playing age you'll be facing down this fierce Round pitcher. The machine provides consistent pitching placement and speeds for kids learning the game, and also for adults who may need a few swings to shake the dust off.

Looks like the sewing machine may not be a piece of outdoor equipment. Just a hunch from the available evidence. It's likely that the rust may affect the spinning of the balance wheel, slow down the bobbin winder, and gum up the presser foot. Maybe your pants don't get hemmed. At least not out in the garden.

Share a drink with friends no matter where you are. A Guarani legend has it that while visiting Earth the goddesses of the Moon and the Cloud were attacked by a jaguar. An old man saved them, so they gave him a new plant called yerba mate to make a "drink of friendship". Today, the drink is called mate (“MAH-tay”) and is the national drink of Argentina. It's a kind of tea made by pouring hot water over the mate leaves in a gourd shaped container, and is drunk through a metal straw called a bombilla, and shared.

It seems like there are more different ways to artfully contain a light bulb than anything. Just look up or around anywhere you go and you're bound to see a unique fixture casting a Round warming glow from above, like the morning sun.

This dining room chandelier is anchored by a pretty significant golden sphere, giving any diner a 180 degree view of their fellow guests and whether or not they've cleaned their plates.

Not to alarm you, but there's something in the water. A little drop of color seems to have given your beverage a eerie green psychedelic swirl. If this was a fairytale you might say the evil queen has just poisoned your red Solo goblet.

If you see a chicken sign in your neighborhood, it can only mean one thing -- donuts. This little Round chicken cut-out is the beacon for Federal Donuts, one of Philadelphia's favorite restaurants serving fried chicken and some round Round donuts as a most appropriate side dish.

Yeah, sometimes you need a little extra support. A comfortable place to sit and rest, take a load off. An inflatable Round is the life preserver for your round bottom.

There's the sun in the sky and the sun on your face and the sun on the wall. This little sun peeks over the shoulders of diners at Monterrey Mexican Restaurant in Charlotte, NC. Enjoy that burrito platter, I'll just watch.

The National Barbeque & Grilling Association says "barbecue made human civilization possible," and that is very true. From the first moment cooked meat passed through the teeth and over the gums, it's look out stomach! In 1492 Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue and chowed down with the Arawak Indians cooking on a barbacoa. Even the father of our country George Washington wrote in his 1769 diary "Went in to Alexandria to a Barbecue and stayed all Night." Party on, George! So everyone's barbeque story starts somewhere.
