Cutie Dynamite Date at Fenton’s!

Hi! Things have been SO crazy busy over here. Totally wrecking my health by working late every nite, barely sleeping, and eating like total crap. Planning to be in L.A. a lot in the coming weeks for Sugarpill-related events (to be announced once Yume finishes the flyer!) and killin’ myself over developing new products. Not that I’m complaining, I think being busy is really fun cuz it keeps me out of trouble. ;-)

Anyway, I had a super mellow birthday this year. Kevin and I were both really sick! I slept for 17 hours, got up to meet Andrea (Cutie Dynamite) for ice cream sundaes at Fentons, went back to bed, then woke up 5 hours later and went out for dinner with Kevin. I think I am secretly over partying for my birthday, so my body makes itself sick on purpose so that I won’t have to go out hahaha.

Random Sugarpill Work Day

Hey, you guys wanna see what we do at work all day? Just kidding, this was a totally random day — it’s not usually this fun or fattening.

Grabbing a quick lunch with Tess at the local Irish pub. Camouflaging into the polka dot chair. Hey, where’d I go?!

Sugarpill Press Check. BOXES!!!

I LOVE getting to see behind the scenes glimpses of how things are made. Don’t you?! So I was really excited when I went to Sugarpill’s first press check and toured the factory that makes our boxes. Sweet!! These pics are old obviously, since we launched 2 months ago haha. Catching up on pictures slowly but surely!

Yeah yeah, I don’t care how stupid my face looks here. This is the expression of PURE JOY!!

Mini Picture Post Catch-up!

Wow, I’ve totally neglected you, blog! I know I know, I’ve been really internet anti-social, and everyone is mad at me for taking so long to launch the Sugarpill site. But it ain’t easy trying to launch a second business when the first one keeps you on your toes full-time! And I had to fly to Isla Mujeres in the middle of all this madness because one of my best friends got married. OH and there is that pesky thing called sleep! Why can’t there be more hours in a day, more days in a week? I promise not to leave the house until the site is DONE!!! And it’ll be totally worth the wait.

Here are the last of my pictures from December. Just a few!

Tokyo Creators Market/Bazaar Bizarre Fair at New People Artist Village in Japantown

Hi! I’m taking a break from working on the Sugarpill site to post pictures from the New People Artist Fair in Japantown last weekend. Twinkie and I got booths next to each other — it was so romantic! The event took place on Friday night and all day Saturday.

Embarrassing story: This was my first craft fair ever, and I was really nervous. While I was loading the makeup and clothing rack into my car, I joked about how funny it would be if I forgot to bring the clothes. I bet you know where this story is going, right? Well, just as we crossed over the bridge into San Francisco, I gasped in horror as I realized that I really forgot to bring all the clothes. So that we wouldn’t be late, Kevin dropped me and my sis off at New People to check in, then he drove all the way back home to get my clothes. In the meantime, we spent AT LEAST 45 minutes sitting in an empty booth under a big Shrinkle sign with NO MERCH. Everyone was like “What is this? What are you doing? What’s Shrinkle?” It was tooooooo embarrassing!

Kevin to the rescue, thank god!! My favorite thing about guys is that you can do the STUPIDEST shit and they will fix it without getting mad.
