Ice Cream

Ice cream, because it's a hot summer. The original ice cream bunny I made was pretty well received so I made a panda fairly recently. Animal ice cream is a million times easier than making a full plush, so why not make more? I went into my stash and found a cute pastel yarn and got to work!

Doughnut Day

Apparently it's National Doughnut Day? Good thing I made some doughnuts last night. To get the summer rollin' I thought I could try crocheting something new. Doughnuts just seemed like a good idea, probably because I wanted to eat some.

Cake and Fluffy Phonestraps

What do people even do with amigurumi and plushie cakes anyway? I mean, sure it's cute and all...but it really only exists for display purposes. And hats. Little cake hats. Those are cute.

International Lolita Day Summer '12

 "Fortune Cookie" tea.

No craft post today, sorry. Instead, enjoy some delicious food photos!

Blooming Tea

I got this tea for Christmas and so far have only had one. The other day I decided to try another! It was lovely to watch, but I don't think I care too much for the flavor. It's very savory, so I tried to tone it down with milk and sugar. I'm going to assume the rest will taste similar, but at least they're all different blooms. Video at the end of the post.

Asian Cultural Festival

We had an awesome banner!

I attended Asian Cultural Festival on Saturday, representing lolita fashion in general and San Diego Lolitas, my local group. I didn't really have much details on what was going on, I just knew we had a booth and table space...so I kind of went into it a little blindly. But I was pleasantly surprised to see that we had a legit booth and banner! I haven't been regularly attending meet ups, so I didn't know we were an organization, haha. It's pretty damn cool though.

The water dragon mascot is so cute!

Tonari no Totoro

I made cookies.
Completely unrelated to CtF.
But I just want to show them off.
