Laduree Paris has teamed up with Sonny Angels from Japan to create a darling little Kewpie for Laduree's new launch of pasteries.
 Sonny Angel is a character which said to be a boyfriend who will make you smile and feel at peace. These are available at Laduree Paris and other locations. You can also purchase the individual"Blind Boxes" with one mystery character in them for about 15-18$ - I've have found them for sale, the blind boxes but the shipping on them is outrageous, I might cave in and purchase one though so I can see it in full detail, because these Kewpie's are so darling.


 These are the blind boxes floating around the internet currently, although they are very rare to get a hold of, its not impossible, unless you want to pay very expensive shipping on these cuties.
There's a  total of 13 designs, 12 normal designs and 1 secret design, sold in each box (not every blind box comes with a secret design)


Yummy!! These are the boxes these limited edition Sonny Angel dolls come with -The Macaroon boxes comes in 4 types, Patisserie Palme, Patisserie Blue, Patisserie Rose and Patisserie Macaroons and a cute little doll ?! YES PLEASE!

I will keep doing some more research on where to find these cuties, but currently it seems that the market is saturated with these only in Australia, in which they do not ship to North America.
Ill try Japan next but again, shipping from there can run up to 60$ for something this small..
Will updated if and when I order one.

Oh My
Mask's!

My face mask collection stash is a never ending obsession. With over 80 masks I'm literally contemplating using some on my fiance' lol
I'am however worried about  the expiry dates, which is why I have made this blog post to remind myself that all of these will expire if I do not use them.

I love facial masks and if your new to facial masks, there a fun little way to test out beauty products, while looking hilariously funny in the process. There is over 70,000 different face masks on the market today and counting, so you should be sure which ones will suite your skin before buying just any one of them, because I've heard some horror stories about very cheap/ knock off face masks produced in China. Don't fret though, most companies are legit. Just do some research before ordering from Ebay, or any other independent retail website that's foreign or not foreign.


My Mask obsession started with Memebox and from there all I started collecting . Buying masks left and right even though I didn't even need anymore, but hey, you can't have too many face masks right?

Have a safe & Happy New Years
2015

Lots of Love

Mini
Brownies



The holiday's have always been my weak spot for binging on goodies, pasteries, treats and many other things. These Mini brownies by Presidents Choice - Gluten Free are another holiday favorite of mine that I just recently tried. Not only are they gluten free, 4$ a bag, they are delicious, there better than the non gluten free ones which gives me horrible headaches. These ones are flaky with a bit of crunch and can be pretty addicting , but at 100 calories per brownie, make sure you keep count lol.


I'm all about ingredients but at this time of year (Christmas/New Years) I tend to let it slide a bit.
The only ingredient in these that I brown nose is the modified corn starch (MCS) which probably means these are NOT GMO free. I always usually buy my snacks from Bulk Barn because there reliable when it comes to selling NON GMO & GLUTEN free products, so if you don't know where to buy GMO free or Gluten free than check out your local Bulk Barn (Canada)
 Asides from all that there simply delicious and a must try.



These are about 3 inches thick and about 8 inches in diameter, so one of these are pretty filling *wink *wink* You can see how flaky they are which is a perfect compliment to the moistness inside, but not to moist and not dry.
I already had two of these today *CRIES* and now have to head over to my Mother's house for New Years Eve which will be filled with snacks and food *CRIES* lol - Oh well 2015 will be a great year for my figure, and sadly I will have to say "Good-Bye" to the treats.

Have a wonderful New Years & be Safe and Don't drink and drive if your going out.

KALE
101



Kale has recently become a staple in my diet, packed with rich vitamins, calcium, antioxidants and so much more, its super powers should be a part of you're daily life.

It's as easy as adding Kale to you're daily super food smoothies every morning, or in place of lunch.
You can add banana's , strawberries, advocado, mango, cantaloupe, you name it you can add it to you're kale smoothie.


My daily Kale smoothie consists of
  • Camino Cocoa Power (All Natural/Fair Trade) - 2Tps
  • Silk Almond Vanilla  - 1Cup
  •  Flax Seed (Grounded) - 1Tps
  • Fresh Organic Kale - 1Cup

I usually put in some banana's and strawberries, but if I forgot to pick some up, this would be my backup. If the kale gives my blender a hard time I usually put in some water, or more almond milk, and I usually just eye ball how much kale I put in, but usually around 1Cup.


My energy goes up 100% after I get this into me. I'm very busy all day, and all night, so this baby helps. I lack iron like most woman, so this is a better and healthier alternative than taking iron pills.

Burger King's
Black Burger?!



Burger king has released the "Black Burger" in Japan also called the "Kuro Burger" for a limited of time. Ummm, You wouldn't catch me eating that thing!! You would have to pay me to eat that lol.


Burger King Japan describes it on their Facebook page as, “Two insane, 2 good to be true.”

They're
offering two versions of the black burger, Kuro Pearl and the Kuro
Diamond, until November. Kuro means black in Japanese.According to the news release,
the Kuro Burger is made up of a black bun and black cheese colored with
bamboo charcoal, black soy-based sauce with onions with squid ink added
to it - on a beef patty with black pepper.The Kuro Diamond Burger has fresh lettuce, tomato, onion and mayonnaise - which are not colored black.

Since Burger King released images of the burgers on Facebook, there have been mixed reviews.

Christopher Gallagher posted on the company's Facebook page,
“Okay Burger King, I have been to your restaurant in over a year. Get
this burger here in the [United] States and you'll have a customer. I
want to try it.”Others aren't so sure about the burger.

“I hope it tastes better than it looks,” Michael Robinson wrote on the page.


The things people come up with is shocking lol.

"If I Stay"





Synopsis:

"Life changes in an instant for young Mia Hall after a car accident puts her in a coma. During an out-of-body experience, she must decide whether to wake up and live a life far different than she had imagined."

I've been so desperately trying to see this movie but have yet to find the time to see it. I have read the books and there amazing. I love movies such as this: Dramatic, thriller. - Chloe' Moretz is also a great actress which several movies I love that she play's in. This movie, from seeing the previews looks like such a great tear jerker. It's always nice to have a few cry's once in awhile, it feels good and this movie I heard, will not disappoint. So I'm going to grab some snacks, maybe some wine? and get comfy in my bed and watch this (order online), and than report back (hopefully with not so puffy eyes and a bag of lays vanished)

If you have not seen this movie yet you should check it out!! Even by yourself :) Not with the boy toy though!!  with some girlfriends.

Cheers ladies!
