I am loving these coasters/pads designed by Sunny Chung for Toast Living. Made of colorful silicon, they can be used folded and square, or unfolded to form delightful petals for your cup, pot, or pan.

I'm sorry for yesterday and today's lack of updates. After having overnight guests and hosting a weekend full of World Cup festivities, we are nothing short of pooped.
Even the little guy shares in our fatigue:
I know we have a nice DSLR with which we can take fabulous photos. I also know that I can draw back the curtains to let in some light into the dim living room before attempting to take any pictures in these dismal light conditions. But I am too tired and lazy so you'll just have to make do with this fuzzy, noise-filled camera phone picture.
I'll be back soon with regular updates, I swear.

I think I'm the only Asian girl I know who has never been into Hello Kitty. However, I've decided to share these illustrations by Joseph Senior because I'm sure there are tons of Hello Kitty fans among my readers.
Plus, it's not every day you see Hello Kitty dressed as Jason (of Friday the Thirteenth fame). Or as Robocop. Or Gundam. Or Boba Fett...
One of the things I miss most about working in an office environment is the plethora of office/desktop toys I used to have lying around my desk (ie, my collection of Star Wars Mr. Potatoheads).
So I live vicariously through J.
I have gifted him many office toys over the years, including a Red Swingline Stapler (à la Office Space) and a Staples® Easy Button. Now, it may be time to add one more...
Yesterday, J sent me a link to an online t-shirt store with a note that read, "Thought you might appreciate the design."

As you can see, each shirt has printed the names of the players who will be participating in the World Cup for that particular country.
I did appreciate the bold and simple design (thanks, hubby!) and was fully intent on blogging about it today...
