So naturally I was on Polyvore creating outfits I dream of, and I came across these adorable Gummi Bear candy inspired earrings! Talk about cute enough to eat! All I could think of as I made my set was how much I wanted a pair….and then my mind switched to how much I wanted a bag of gummi bears at that moment. PERFECT combination! lol Luckily for me, Polyvore has a “buy it” option, as well as the link to the store, so off I went to check out the mechanics of this sweet little accessorie.

Yes another treat! This one is a chocolate mousse with strawberries. My boyfriend, again, bought it from Chinatown.

It wasn’t as good as it looked. The mouse was really fluffy and made me feel like I was eating a chocolate cloud. I guess it would be a good thing if I liked eating marshmallows. I was really disappointed since it looked so good. I guess some things are better seen then eaten!

I’ve coined some new lingo with my suitemate today that I think will be useful to every girl who’s ever been involved with a guy and then had to recreate their relationship with him on a platonic level. There’s no word in the English language to describe that kind of relationship - a friend and an ex but more complicated, more bittersweet. So we’ve decided that these kinds of guys are sour patch kids. Read on to see why:

Last year I dated a guy who was all kinds of crazy and made me all kinds of crazy (good and bad). We ended horribly - the kind of breakup that involves a lot of bad language, secrets coming out that should never be revealed, facebook blocking, and months of silent treatment. And now seven months later we’re talking again and trying to be friends. It’s impossible for us to ever be friends the way we’re friends with other people - we’ve hurt each other too much for full trust and seen too much of the other person for full platonicity. It’s impossible for us to ever be lovers again because there’s too much damage. But the chemistry existed for a reason so it’s fun to be around him.

Super Mario Galaxy is probably one of the best games for the Wii console. Having only played a few rounds myself, I’ve always loved the creativity of the game.

Well now it’s come to real life, or as close as it will get. A father made a Super Mario Galaxy themed cake for his daughter’s 4th birthday. She’s quite the cutie and one lucky girl. The dad built the cake of Rice Kripies, different cakes and fondant. Not only does the cake resemble the game exactly, but it moves too! How do you like them apples?

I have to admit, he can probably bake better than me.

LOL “food stuffs.” I love that phrase. Anywho, since tomorrow is the big Turkey Day, I thought, why not talk about my favorite Thanksgiving foods. Since I don’t eat meat, I’m all about the yummy side dishes…but then again, now that I think about it; even when I did eat meat it was ALL about the side dishes. Am I the only one who thinks the side dishes don’t get shown enough love? I mean, yeah sure the turkey is the center piece, but without the supporting cast he’s just a dead bird right? LOL anway, check out what I’m looking forward to tomorrow night.

So I’m not really into Lil’ Mama or anything, but I do love lip gloss, like most chicks. Been in love since I got my extra large size raspberry Lipsmackers when I was 10. I still like lipsmackers, I won’t deny it, but I’ve branched out. For the super cutest lip glosses and everything else kitschy and freakin’ adorable, check out www.fredflare.com. They just launched a brick and mortar store at 131 Meserole Ave in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, so you can scoop up the cute in person. It’s a great store to go to for novelty items for holiday presents for your friends. It’s stuff you don’t really need, but so cute, it’s a justifiable splurge. So here is my cute gift guide (all available at fredflare.com):

1. Petit Four Lip Balm Set- $18
4 juicy pots of lip gloss in the shape of a raspberry cream tart, cream tart, chocolate cream puff, and strawberry cream tart.

Yep, it appears that way. If you’re bored with traditional Thanksgiving dinners, and you coincidentally live near Los Angeles, then you might want to try Takami’s holiday special Turkey Sushi. It does sound a bit off, but if you think about it, it’s not that weird. The dish comes with all the fixin’s just like a regular Thanksgiving dinner, but your turkey is just rolled into a sushi roll. It actually looks really cool, right?

If I were a meat eater, I’d try this, just because it seems fun to eat. And to avoid any confusion, the turkey is cooked. LOL.

No, you perves,I’m not asking you to direct a “home movie”,  Naked is a juice drink. And it’s so delicious, I think it should be illegal! Naked Juice is probably some of the healthiest, yummiest, and unfortunately most expensive juice at your favorite bodega. For about $3.00 for 15.2 FL OZ you too can have some of this amazing concotion. Last night I tried the “Geen Machine”, which looks like pureed baby poo, but just like the label promised “it actually tastes good”…delicious in fact!

There’s a pound of fruit in each bottle, plus the majority of the juices contain some type of vegetable (Green Machine has 10 ) or essential vitamin, which is GREAT since most girls don’t get enough of the vitamins needed to be healthy. The green machine alone is like anemia-fighting central, with all of the broccoli, spinach, blue green algae, and even some barley grass! And oddly enough, it tasts GOOOOOOOOOODDDDD.

I’m not really a chocoholic despite popular belief, I just like to indulge in it every once in awhile.

I recently received these European chocolate candies from a friend. After trying one of the white chocolate ones, I realized the center was filled with alcoholic crème. Note that I don’t drink so when my mouth was filled with bitterness, I immediately gave the rest to my boyfriend to eat.

However I couldn’t resist trying another one because the flavor was coffee. For whatever reason, this one wasn’t filled with alcoholic crème or if it was I could barely taste it over the coffee. It was definitely more enjoyable then the previous one.

I woke up early this morning only to be greeted by delicious looking baked goods! I never eat breakfast much less eat anything right after I wake up but I just couldn’t resist this time.

There were 3 boxes of goodies: 3 different types of cakes (2 of each), an apple cream cheese cup cake and a cherry cup cake. Talk about fattening but it’s the holiday season (well almost) so my attempts to stay thin are completely out the door.

While there was so much to choose from, I decided to go with the chocolate cake. To my surprise, it had little pieces of cherry inside which made it 10x better. Not only that but the frosting/cream wasn’t overly sweet which is huge for me. Frosting/cream is meant to taste good, not kill your teeth! It was so delicious; I’m even craving it right now.

My boyfriend had the apple cream cheese cup cake which had apple bits inside. It was pretty good but not as good as my cake!
