Preview of the week

The whole time I thought those little patterns were doll faces until recently I found out it should be read the other way around and those were little flower buds instead. Silly me! =P Oh well, it is not the first time to see things in a different way, like the cranky face of an electrical outlet and the creatures in clouds. All you need is just some imagination I guess. =)

Little Doll Dress Happy Tuesday!

Hi from Puchi

It's me again. Time flies. It has been almost a year since my last post. I'm a year and eight months old now. In the past year, I've grown quite a bit, taller and chubbier and weigh a bit over five pounds. Here's my little update and a few more things about me.

1. I've learned more new words. My favourite word is 'steak' and my least favourite words are 'not for you'.
2. I've learned how to dance and play dead.
3. My new favourite snacks are dried sweet potato and chicken breast.
4. I love playing hide and seek.
5. In a hot summer day, I like to take a nap on the cool wood floor.
6. I love sniffing beautiful flowers.
7. I like to sleep with my head upside down.
8. I like fresh socks(from your feet) but I will take the clean ones for substitute.
9. I do a little stretch routine in the morning, front stretch, back stretch, side stretch.
10. I take bits of whatever food on the coffee table when no one is watching. shhh... that's my little secret.
Here's a snap shot of my adorable back and little leg.I hope you are having a lovely summer and wish you enjoy the rest of it. See you around. Ciao!

Feature of the Week

I'm so happy that my favourite round collar is back! Many thanks to the Coordinate Recipe 8! =) The little book has really saved me out from the frustration on the round collar.
So, may I present you the adorable vintage princess shirt.It features the lovely round collar, vintage beads deco and princess sleeves. It is crafted of cotton navy pin dot fabric and it has the classic mushroom fit, darts in the front and back. There are only beads on the chest so that it will fit well underneath dresses.
And the little coffee stripes baby doll dress is totally cute. Tips: wearing a pair of bloomers underneath the baby doll dress will make it look puffier.

Happy Thursday! =)

A Few Things to Share

Hooray!! Our first ever beautiful juicy tomato is finally ready to harvest. =)We've started growing different things for quite a while and it hasn't been easy. Most of the plants didn't survive for a bunch of reasons, too little sun, too much water, the dry climate, etc. These tomatoes we've been growing since February and they are right from the seeds. It has been a long happy journey to see them grow.As I mentioned earlier, we are slowly putting up our treasures in the showcase. This little lovely one is from a pretty exclusive collection called the Wee Forest Folk which we don't see much around, at least in California. Each delicate piece is cast from an original piece sculpted by the members of the Petersen family and hand painted carefully.This delicious Three Cheese Semolina Loaf is from La Brea Bakery. The three cheeses are Asiago, Parmesan and Romano. It would be nicer if they put some melted cheese crumbs inside.  Be sure to heat it up before enjoying it.  It will make a world difference!Have you seen the Nanapus, banana X octopus, before? It's an old commercial a friend shared with us last week. It is so silly. =)
Happy Tuesday!

Mini Outing

We went on a mini date to Santa Monica over the weekend. It is always nice to head out but we have been pretty much discouraged by the traffic nowadays. Fortunately, the traffic was pretty good and we made it to our brunch stop before noon. California Chicken Cafe has always been one of our favourites. It's fresh, delicious and healthy, only if we could resist to not over order. =)
This was our little brunch for two.We then headed to Wertz Brothers Antique Mart. It had quite a decent collection of fishing and hunting stuff, seaside cottage furnture. I've found this little moody guy sitting in the showcase. It seemed like he had been trying hard to get out and finally gave up. Poor little guy! =]
Happy Tuesday! =)

Something Familiar

I've been thinking of re-making two of my favourite pieces for a while but somehow it has been pushed and pushed. It is definitely nice to stay one of a kind but it will be wonderful if I can share these lovely ones with a few more of you. =) Here we are, the adorable yellow cupcake dress and the delicious strawberry ruffle shirt.
They will be available at the little shoppe tomorrow.
Happy Wednesday! =)

The Cute Little One

Sometimes I wonder if Puchi knows that she is the cutest little one ever, at least to us. She is always very good for the most part but sometimes this little one can have some attitude too, in a cute way though. =)
The other day she was trying to ignore the camera.Still ignoring it even when it got closer.Even this close, she had pretty good acting there, huh? =)And finally, she rolled around and showed me her cute pose meaning that I was just playing with you, you can take my picture now.Have a lovely week! =)
