You know how mother always warns you not to play with food? With Jelly Coco, you can. Granted, it’s a cute flash game but the concept is still the same. The game is actually a cute clone of a SEGA Klax arcade game. Your objective is to catch falling pies then drop them from the paddle on the bottom to make rows of the same color pie. If you drop a lot of pie, the game will end…naturally. Dropping a pie anywhere is a downright sin anywhere, anyways. More »

Library books are hardly the first thing that pops into my mind when it comes to wedding invitations. One particular couple, Casy and Amy, thought it’d be clever to send out library book-themed wedding invitations. To create the invitations, they collected a lot of old books and screen printed the “Casey & Amy” design on each one and used the library theme for their RSVP cards on the reverse side.

I’ve been known to keep an overdue book or two around. More »

Meet Mr. Snuffles. He was first introduced to the world this past weekend, during the American International Toy Fair in New York, the Gund booth displayed a special teddy bear named Snuffles which featured real, white alpaca fur on his body.

They most certainly do not make enough amigurumi (Japanese knitting) tea party-inspired items. When it is done, the results are freakin’ cute.

I have found that a great way to get a good deal on clothing is to shop for out-of-season fashion. Many stores tend to slash prices on clothing from the previous season to make room for clothing from the upcoming season. If you are a budget conscious shopaholic, then you should head over to PlasticLand. More »
