My Trip to Nikkei Place's Craft & Bake Fair

My friends and I went to the Nikkei Place's Craft & Bake Fair today. I'm really glad that I went because I enjoyed shopping and looking at every table. There were a lot of handmade Japanese jewellery, hand-knits, clothing, cards, and many other amazing crafts! There were also delicious waffles and Japanese desserts.

PT got a miniature bonsai and A got an really pretty necklace holder for her work ID. As for me, I bought two handmade card with a Japanese doll on the front...so pretty!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween, everyone!

How did you guys spend your Halloween weekend? :) I spent my weekend with my friends and we did some fun Halloween activities! Gnomie, A, and I carve pumpkins. This is our third year carving pumpkins and I think they improve each year...not me because my cupcake pumpkin from last year didn't look presentable (lol). This year, I decided to carve Hoho the monkey from Ni Hao, Kai-Lan...I carved it for the little ones :)
