  • My tokidoki collection: Purses and beyond

    I swear this is the last of it... =]  I just felt like showing off some more.  Also, once again, damn this camera phone!  Wow.  Apparently, I've spent over $1500 on tokidoki stuff.  Amazing.

    All my purses + wallet together in their glory.  Wow! They take up a lot of space!

    Here's the one that was signed by the person who created tokidoki!

    Bambinone in Vacanze

    (shown, bambino in vacanze, but close enough! I couldn't find baminone in this pattern :( )

    What a great run... I'm kind of bummed that I don't have anything from the Summer 2007 season, though! I totally thought that Amore was a part of that season, but apparently they were separate! :(

  • My desk at work

    Excuse the bad quality of my recent line of pictures, since my camera's broken, all I have access to is my cell phone camera. :)

    Anyhow, here's a picture of part of my desk at work. :)   These guys make my day brighter every day.

  • Thing-A-Day, day 7: Happy House bento

    In case you're wondering why I've been uploading pictures of my lunch each day, I signed up for Thing-A-Day, an online community that pledged to make something every day for the entire month of February.  My pledge to myself was to make a lunch box every weekday for the month. :)

    Today's Lunch:

    • Taiyaki
    • Furikake [seaweed sprinkles] in the yellow duckie
    • Fresh carrots
    • Fish cakes
    • Brown rice

     Today's point of interest: the happy house scene made with carrots, nori, fish cake, and pickled raddish



    I realized I've never shown what my lunchbox looks like closed, so here it is! :)

  • Thing-a-day day 2: wedding stuff

    In order to
    reduce the cost of the wedding, I’ve decided to make and arrange all
    the flowers for my wedding [with help, ofcourse!] … Anyhow, by
    calculations, in order to make 660[how much origami paper I bought]
    flowers, I need ato make about 3 a day until the wedding.  So far in 4
    days since I started, I’ve been able to make 60! Yay~

    Additionally, I’ve begun prototyping ideas for flower arrangements
    for the wedding, starting with the bridesmaids flowers! Let me know
    what you think.

    Alright! 60 down, only 600 more to go!!

  • Thing-a-day day 1

    I'm going to try to improve on my lunch-box making skills. :)   I forgot to buy food to make lunch, so I was stuck with what was left in the fridge -- booo...
