Glico has a new product out called Pankish. It's a chewy type of cookie similar to Fig Newtons but instead of a fruit filling in the center, there are raisins, apples and chopped walnuts embedded throughout the cookie. It's just a little over 200 calories so I don't feel guilty snacking on one.

Meiji just changed their packaging for Apollo. The tube on the top is the older version and the bottom one is the newest one. I like the new one more. There are more colors that make the packaging more kawaii. The chocolates are still the same.

I'm not a Disney fan so I wasn't planning to buy this set. But since they're a Halloween theme, I thought it might be cute to give these to my neighbors' kids on Halloween. So before giving these to them, of course I want to snap some pics to share. The material this time is different from previous Re-ment cookie series. The older sets were rigid but these are flexible. They're also much smaller than previous sets. I think Marie is the cutest among the group. Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse don't look like themselves and I was wondering what Disney characters they were until I read the paper insert that was included.

About a week ago I bought the first 3 designs of the Vitasoy 70th Anniversary soy milk cartons Pic of the first 3 styles . I was able to find 3 new ones today and this set was the one I wanted the most. The 4 Chinese characters on the left one roughly translate to "good union for hundred years" or basically together forever. I've already placed the "I love you" and "I miss you" cartons in my boyfriend's car and left a note telling him to look at the back of the cartons before drinking. I didn't know until this morning that my Sket One Ketchup Dunny arrived yesterday. I was super lucky because I got this off of an eBay auction. Including shipping, I only had to pay about $9 and I get the Dunny I want! I really want the Relish and Mustard Dunnies but they're being sold as a set of 3 (ketchup, relish and mustard) and the cheapest I found was $299. There are sellers selling the ketchup and relish together for a cheaper price but I also want the...

Just received my set of keychains. They're mostly candy charms with either Hello Kitty, My Melody, Little Twin Stars or Patty & James on the packages. What I didn't like about some of the charms is that the material is the same cellophane wrapper as real life candy wrappers. As you know, cellophane wrappers are smooth and glossy when new but once you fold or crumble it, the wrapper gets dull and wrinkly. So as keychains, I don't think the charms with the cellophane wrappers will not be able to withstand gentle use. I would rather hang them on my purse so my keys won't rip the delicate wrappers. The other candy packages are vinyl pouches so they will be slightly more durable than the cellophane wrappers.

Yeah!! I finally received my birthday cake set from the Re-ment Toy Story Happy Birthday Party series. The birthday cake was the only set that I wanted. The other sets had more non-food miniatures and I'm not really in to that. I think Re-ment did a wonderful job with the cake. Look at the textures of the icing and cake! It's o realistic. All the cake decorations are movable so you can take decorations from other sets to mix and match. I also went to Kingdom Cake today to get some cupcakes. Kingdom Cake is just a take-out window so all the cupcakes are pre-packed in fours, eights or twelves and flavors of the day are limited unless you pre-order in advance. These are miniature cupcakes but slightly larger than Mission Minis. They're $2 per cupcake so it's a little pricey but all the cupcakes are really moist. The blueberry lemon and lemon cupcakes are really good. They're sweet and extremely tart at the same time! I somehow didn't like the red velvet as much bec...

Bloomingdale's Friends and Family discount will be going on from Sep 30 to Oct 3rd. You have to have a printed pass to shop in person to get the 20% off but you can also shop online using the code: FRIENDS The following is what I've have been using recently: From left to right: The Body Shop Vitamin E eye cream, Philosophy Turbo Booster C powder, Neutrogena Age Shield + Repair Sunblock. I usually don't wear an eye cream but I've noticed the area below my eyes have been a little tight lately so I think I need to moisturize that area a little more before applying the sunblock. This Neutrogena sunblock already provides daily moisture so I don't need an extra moisturizer for the face. This sunblock contains Feverfew and Vitamin E to neutralize free radicals. Since I mix the Turbo Booster C powder with the sunblock, I don't apply it on my eyelids or the Turbo Booster C powder will sting my eyes! The Turbo Booster C powder is suppose to protect against free radical d...
