Hello Cutie Nesting Chocolate Dolls from Ukraine! I don't know if I'd be able to take off the adorable wrapper to eat the delish chocolate inside... but might need to find out!!! xxxo
Kutusita Nyanko is a kawaii character that is super popular in Japan. One of my fave bday presents was a wee version of his best friend Boots. The story goes that Boots spends his time adventuring with his friends or helping around the house. Who wouldn't want a kitty like him?! Oh, and mine is named P. Kitty... why? Cus he liked it! Hello There Cutie xxxo
Summertime is gardening... but I don't know how these cutie plants would feel about being put into the dirt! Perhaps their smiles might turn upside down. Whatta dilemma! xxxo
If I were a blonde, Doug still back East and time-warped to the 50s, this would be us on V-day! Sledding along with one of our pets (I think it'd be my bunny Amelie), big smiles and wearing cute outfits. And, of course, with a "pun" thought bubble above us! Hello There Cuties!!! xxxo
"Who" you might be asking "are these two cuties on a box?" Why let me answer that... they are Maurie and Flaurie of Superdawg in Chicago. In addition to being able to see them at their drive-in location, you can also spy M & F at Midway airport. We adore their retro cool illustration style, and how Flaurie is kinda shy while Maurie flexes his muscles to impress her. Total cuties!!! xxxo
A b-day book I was given features the art of Alba Ballard, a 1960s Long Island housewife who thought it was cute to dress up her pet parrots in costumes and photograph them. The images are cute yet disturbing... and I can't stop looking at this book; Amelie, my pet bunny, isn't too happy about it. I wonder why??? xxxo
Thanks to Elisabeth, Scott & Valentina for the book!
