You know how it’s typical of me to feature delicious user-submitted dessert pictures from New York City followed by me wishing I was in New York City? This time around, things are different. I’m actually in New York City this week to cover fashion week on behalf of our latest sister fashion site, OMGHaute. With confidence I can say that the previous pictures never did any justice to what’s here and that, man — there’s a lot of great dessert to eat! More »

I was a Lush store virgin up until a few days ago. Popping my Lush cherry was quite a confusing experience. Not only was the store filled with a daunting amount of yummy scented soaps and beauty products, it all looked like food to me! Lush is definitely a toddler mother’s nightmare. Luckily, I walked away from the store without having digested a bar of soap disguised as a cupcake. More »

Growing up as a cynical teenage girl in the late ’90s, one of my favorite shows on television was MTV’s Daria. It is hard to think that this Beavis and Butt-Head spin-off has been off the air for eight years now. When I heard the news that MTV and Paramount FINALLY decided to release a DVD of all five seasons, I felt like my life was becoming a little more complete. More »

I’ve actually never had meatloaf myself, but I have heard a lot about them, mainly from children complaining about having to eat leftover meatloaf for dinner again. I’m sure if their mothers had made meatloaf cupcakes, their attitudes would be different. It’s a novelty idea. More »

I was a little bit confused prior to Valentine’s Day– as a girl, I didn’t know if I was supposed to do anything for my boyfriend. I asked a friend and he said, “your only job is to respond.” My boss, on the other hand, was appalled at the thought and insisted that I do more. So basically, it was really just up to me.

Not wanting to get too elaborate, I ended up making cutout shortbread cookies. More »

When food is good, it is really good, and when cats love a meal, they show satisfaction for it by nom, nom, nomming it fully. Actually, they also make a nom-nom sound when enjoying good eats. I have a cat myself, but I have never heard her make this sound before. Maybe I should feed her better food to get this sound effect? More »

So for Valentine’s Day, I went to the theaters with my boyfriend to watch the romantic drama, Dear John– a movie, much to my surprise, that he decided upon (though to his credit, he didn’t really know what the movie was about, other than he heard it was good). I, on the other hand, wanted to watch Daybreakers, but they weren’t screening it anymore by that time. More »

Kewpie dolls are meant to be in the nude, although sometimes they wear costumes. It is kind of strange to see them fully clothed. Over at Strapya World, they come in the form of costumed bears representing each of the 12 months of the year. These Kewpie cell phone charms are colored according to the month’s birthstone–garnet for January, amethyst for February, etc. This makes it appealing to any kawaii lover. Their bear costumes are so cute, it is ridiculous! More »
