Mail from Hong Kong

I finally got my little scooter in the mail today!!!! It is very itty-bitty and cute and nicely made. I love it and I love getting mail from other countries!!!!

Re-Ment Korean Food!!!

I have ALWAYS been a sucker for miniatures, and it waaaay back to the time when everyone else was having their first periods and making out with dudes in middle school.... I, meanwhile, was still wearing stretch pants with over-sized Mickey Mouse sweatshirts and playing with dolls and Legos and shit. I didn't curse, never even held a boy's hand, and certainly didn't know what "getting your cherry popped" meant. Oh, those were the days.

So what does middle schooler me have in common with 27 year old me? We both LOVE, LOVE, LOVE dollhouse miniatures!!!!!

I totally spent $5 bucks on a Japanese Re-Ment set designed to look like airline food. My set includes Korean favorites such as Bimimbop, Kimchi, and steamed rice. Horray!

Getting Crazy for Junko Mizuno

I am crazy for the adorable figurines designed by Junko Muzuno and can you believe my favorite Kidrobot put these bad boys out? I am soooo in love! I know it seems like I waste alot of money on toys and t-shirts but it makes me happy and I justify it like this- I don't smoke, drink, or have kids so I have plenty of extra cash alotted to the "Me" department, right? Some people buy lots of records, some spend it all on weed. I, on the otherhand, spend all of my spare cash on pretty things!!!!

I hope to God I can win some of these cuties on eBay! I am totally in winning mode after winning those sweet Dunnys today so let's all cross our fingers and pray for me. Thanks!

I Won!!!!!

I WON!!!

I am super psyched cause I never win anything on eBay, but this time, I won these 2 little Dunny guys from the 2009 Dunny Series. They came as a set and the starting bid was just .99 cents. I put on a few fakie bids to make it look like a bidding war was already happening hoping it might ward away onlookers and I think the tactic worked. I ended up getting them for .99 cents plus $5 bucks shipping and handling. This is a pretty good deal, seeing as 1 blind-boxed Dunny is usually 7 or 8 bucks.

The first Dunny I won was the Mori Chack Gloomy Bear Dunny. Very cute and classic looking.

The second Dunny I won is the Shawnimal guy, complete with the magic wand and jeweled forhead.

I am pretty excited to get these guys in the mail and add them to my collection.

Adorable, Tiny Food

Ever since childhood, I have been beyond fascinated with anything miniature. It probably started with needing props for Barbie and my American Girl doll, but it definitely did not stop there!

When I was in South Korea, I did manage to pick up a few original Japanese Re-Ment pieces here and there. Two of them were sushi sets, and the third was 50's Diner Mickey Mouse themed food. I love these miniatures for their perfect attention to detail and absolutely perfect quality. Also, each set was blind-boxed, meaning you don't know what you are going to get until you open it! How exciting!

In any case, I am back in the United States and have been dreaming and scheming on eBay for more Re-Ment pieces. With these, I would love to make little dioramas and re-creations of rooms, like a doll house. I think this would be very fun, but then again, I also have no children, no pet, and don't drink or do drugs, so I have to get pretty creative with what I do for fun!!!

P.S. The pink photos are from an Ebay auction I would love to win! You can check out the seller's store here:
