Okay, I’ve had a Pinterest account for a while now, but until recently it was just a passing fancy that I would randomly check in on whenever I thought about it. HOWEVER, with everyone at work talking about it, I decided to play with it a little more. I initially just had one folder labeled ‘Eyecandy’, that I pinned everything into. Then everyone was telling me that THEY had theirs categorized by folder…so I created MORE folders and got organized. Then I added a few more pins, as I thought of things…then I saw some things others had pinned and I ‘repinned’ those…then I lost all control and now it is consuming my every waking moment!! LOL! But seriously, it is deliciously wicked (that sounded super-queer, didn’t it? I just heard it in my mind and thought “God, Kirk, that sounds so fruity”). It’s true though! ‘Delicious’ in the sense that I LOVE imagery and ‘wicked’ in the sense that it consumes me for hours at a time, as I think of more and more things. (more…)
• Yoberry Pineapple Froyo
Comment: There is a frozen yogurt place down the street from me, called YoBerry. I love them. They normally have 15-20 different flavors that change over time; some stay, some change. My favorite used to be the Pineapple Tart, but the Angel Food Cake is really good too. They got rid of the Pineapple Tart and replaced it with just plain Pineapple. OMG, I’m in love. I think I like it even better than the tart. Soooo good. Soooo cheap. Delicious! (more…)
Abduction- Okay, before I get too far along with this brief review, you already know, that I only rented this because me likee the Taylor Lautner. It sure wasn’t because the movie looked good. And although I like the package he comes wrapped in, I must admit that I too got wrapped up in the Twilight hype when he returned with a rockin’ bod…then I saw said film he returned for and my interest quickly waned. It was cringeworthy. I assumed it was the material…now I’m thinking it’s the messenger (shoot him already). Don’t get me wrong, Lautner is still pretty, but that’s about it. There are lots of pretty packages out there. Too bad most of them are empty when you shake ‘em.
Synopsis: A thriller centered on a young man who sets out to uncover the truth about his life after finding his baby photo on a missing persons website.
Now before I do MY review, here is a link to a hilariously accurate one that I read online. It’s considerably more brutal, but nonetheless honest. My review will be nowhere near this entertaining, so I’ll leave it up to you if you want to read it now or later.

First off, I had to share with you the funniest thing about a box of Girl Scout cookies:
“Use or freeze before Sept. 2012″ Hilarious! Like those bitches are gonna make it till the end of the week.
Secondly, while we’re on the subject of Girl Scouts, I gotta chime in with my 2¢ about this recent hubbub about the whole “transgender” child whose mother basically bullied his/her way into a club that was initially exclusively female.
For those unfamiliar with the story, you can read about it here. That’ll save me time doing the whole exposition thing. (more…)
A few weeks ago I visited one of my favorite stores: Hong Kong Supermarket. I love going there because I LOVE looking at just about everything, especially the packaging design; it’s all so colorful and fun. I stocked up on my favorite Japanese udon noodles (like Ramen, but better!) and cappuccino pocky (Japanese snack cookie) and even bought some new rice bowls with koi on them and a package of orange plastic chopsticks. As always, I brought my camera and snapped a few photos as well. (more…)
Our Idiot Brother- I rented this because of my love for Paul Rudd.
Synopsis: A comedy centered on an idealist who barges into the lives of his three sisters.
First off, if you saw the trailer, it was pretty misleading, in my opinion. The trailer makes the film seem as if the film is going to be about this wacky misfit brother and his inability to navigate within the real world. Well, it’s partly right. Less wacky and more story…lots of story. This movie is about family dynamics. (more…)
