Rilakkuma Tongs and Stickers

So we dropped by the bookstore with my hubby today after lunch. And we picked up some rilakkuma products!! Again... Haha so we got a sheet of stickers that has the month and birthstone on it and of course features rilakkuma and friends ^_^ the first sheet I got was the May one, which initially caught my eye not because of the month or color but because it has rilakkuma in a cow costume!! And because it is the month of my daughter's birthday. Then I got the October one, which has rilakkuma in a pink squirrel costume and because it's the birth month of my hubby! And finally today I got the one for my birth month, February! It has rilakkuma in a purple theme shirts.

After sticker hunting, I saw the pink korilakkuma tongs! I actually own the same tongs but in yellow, courtesy of my hubby , brought from Japan in February. They are quite useful in the kitchen! So I decided to get the pink ones as well! So that was my dose of rilakkuma shopping addiction for this week hehe... Can't stop buying cute rilakkuma products... Can't stop...

The way the tongs work is that you pull on the top part (bear shaped) and it will lock in place, push the top part down and the tongs will be in release position and ready to grab some pasta or pastries.  The design is quite genius!

Rilakkuma re-ment cases!!

Got these from the mail today!! So happy to receive them!! I went a little overboard with ordering 4 but they were sold out very soon after! Then again, there's so many re-ment rilakkuma sets to fill these cases with. Unfortunately I have yet to purchase these rilakkuma re-ment sets :( will look into it soon, from what I know, there's 5 sets out so far and I want to get them all!!! Ughh they are so cute!! Well I couldn't wait to try these new cases out so I busted out the old hello kitty re-ment set I bought a few years ago in Hong Kong. They were collecting dust in the other case I displayed them in but now, they shall see the light of day once again... At least for a while before I buy all the rilakkuma re-ments! Muhahahahhaha!! The hello kitty set is actually quite nice and the amount of detail is amazing. My personal favorite is the rice cooker :) as for the rilakkuma case, there are three shelves, and a drawer. The drawer opens in the back and has two dividers inside. Very neat design I think. The box also comes with 2 sheets of stickers with 4 designs to decorate the cases with. The cases were actually bigger than I expected :) I will put them to good use soon!!

So many display cases!!!

Mother's Day Shopping Spree

Went Rilakkuma shopping for mother's day!! So nice since the store just got new products in stock the day before, got so many cool things.  Hand towel, stickers, iphone screen protector, forks and spoons for my lovely daughter, sandwich mold, and a super  cute pen!  The pen is really cute, when you press on the pen, rilakkuma turns to the left and eats a bit of the hamburger, and when you press on the pen again, he turns to the right and drinks the lemonade!  Best mother's day ever!  

Shopping spree...

Rilakkuma Pancake Flavored Kit Kat

These are actually quite delicious! At first I didn't know what to expect, but once i tried it, i was hooked. It really taste like pancake! My hubby bought it back in February when he went to Japan but I didn't get a chance to try it till today, it's so yummy! I also love the design of the box, it's actually a bit big considering it's only suppose to hold 12 mini size kit kats, but it's all good. The flap has little pictures of rilakkumas dwelling under it, the design is so cute! I looked it up on eBay and apparently it's about ~$40 to get a box from Japan (including shipping) I was pretty surprised, I didn't think it was that expensive for a box of kit kats. But then again, it's rilakkuma haha of course. I don't think my hubby would've bought it if it was that expensive... It was probably way cheaper than $40 but I am too lazy to look up the retail price for these kit kats... Either way, they are so good... I think they are limited though... Hopefully they are still available when I go to Japan. I would love to buy more. ^_^

Kit Kats! Now my favorite flavor!

Year of the Tiger Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma

It's the year of the Tiger rilakkuma and korilakkuma!  They are too cute!  They are both holding a mini tiger plush and wearing tiger head gear! The back of their heads have 2010 embroidered in gold, it's so nice.  They were quite expensive, but very worth it since they are so rare now.
