When Despicable Me‘s minions collide with the world of Street Fighter, you get these hilariously adorable illustrations by Esty user Minion Me. They are set to appear at the Game Over art show, opening June 18th 2014, at Giant Robot. I can’t decide if I like Chun-Li, Guile, or Cammy the best…but then again, I’ve always had a soft […]
Digital artist Eric Proctor imagines how the internet’s crabbiest cat would fit into the world of Disney. All the illustrations in the series are delightfully amusing, and a few are laugh-out-loud funny. 😆 Be sure to check out the titles for each piece as well for a nice diversion this dreary Friday the thirteenth! “Part of Your No” “Some […]
This past Memorial Day, we decided to visit Green Meadows Farm, a “petting farm” 45 mins from Manhattan. My daughters seem to be city girls. Aerin wasn’t too impressed with the farm animals, while Claire was scared of most of them. We weren’t able to get too many pictures because we had to keep holding the […]
I can be awkward in social situations, but I like to think that I’m sensitive to people’s moods and emotions. So when I happened upon this “mind behind the eyes” test by University of Cambridge professor Simon Baron-Cohen, I expected myself to score well… And I did. 🙂 I got 33/36, which indicates that I am […]
We interrupt this self-imposed, life-is-damn-busy-and-hard blogging break to bring you an item of frivolity. (You can scroll down to the bottom of the post for a tiny update on my going-abouts.) Once again, I am waaayyyyy late to a fashion trend. I remember borrowing J’s jeans a few times when I was pregnant, when none of my […]
Life (mainly, my rugrats) has been keeping me busy. Man, are 2-year-olds and 3-year-olds difficult! I’m so drained these days that blogging has been the last thing on my mind. But when I came across this nifty comic the other day, I knew I wanted to share it with you. It won’t teach you Korean vocabulary or grammar, […]
There is a couple who is very dear to me. They are some of the hardest workers I know — having immigrated to the states with two daughters and no money to their name, they worked menial jobs and saved every last cent until they were finally able to afford a business, and then a […]
I have written in the past about our OCD Nut (Claire) and Mini-Godzilla (Aerin). This character difference not only applies to how my girls clean/mess up their toys, but also extends to how they play and conduct themselves. Aerin is a daredevil while Claire still remains one of the most cautious kids I know. Aerin […]
South Korean artist Park Seoung repaints and stylizes dolls to resemble celebrities and pop culture icons. I was first introduced to his work by the kickass Michonne doll that’s been making its rounds through the interwebz, and I was delighted to click on over to his Flickr page and discover his other works. Michonne You may […]
Claire has been thriving at her Montessori preschool. I recently went in for the mid-year parent-teacher conference, and her teacher couldn’t say enough positive things about her. For example, although Claire is one of the youngest kids in the class, she’s always one of the first to understand and complete new assignments and activities. Not only that, […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
