Overboard on desserts
Tiramisu and Hokkaido cupcake in back are from Rain Cafe, and green tea mousse cake in front are from Kiki's Bakery, both in Seattle, WA.

While they looked very pretty and appetizing, they were a little disappointing. Tiramisu was ok but it was cake, not ladyfingers. The cupcake was dry and hard. The mousse cake was too much cake, but I liked the hints of red bean in the mousse. Might try another round of cakes at these two places, just not all at once, haha.

Clow cards
Clow Cards from the anime series Cardcaptor Sakura
I had been contemplating buying this for many years but told myself it was an unnecessary purchase and I could always buy it later. That is, until I saw it in right in front of me inside a bookstore in Japan......

Gudetama plush
Sanrio's lazy egg character, acquired from a claw machine while in Japan. Hooray for a successful claw machine grab! (after two misses)
