MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT: NINTENDO DS LITE & PHOENIX WRIGHT ACE ATTORNEY! RECENT PRESS FROM NINETEEN74 & MARK BATTY PUBLISHER.
“Wahhhh! Daddy got mommy an insane birthday present. A Nintendo DS Lite in rose metallic and the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney video game!”
“I prefer to sit on the pink tissue paper and play with the string. But I sniffed the adorable cards from him and Grandma. Daddy makes reference to Visual Kei Male or She-Male guessing game and knows I say “mao mao” (not “meow!”). With my help, they have not one but TWO exciting projects in the works… wahhh you shall see!” – Basil Farrow
What more can I say? Hugs and kisses for Ronan and Mia! Thank you for this incredibly thoughtful birthday gift!
A quick round-up of recent press… Global creative networking site Nineteen74 featured me in their latest newsletter. Their site unites creative people from various disciplines (designers, stylists, models, illustrators) – highly recommended!
“La Carmina is one of the net’s most intriguing and successful style bloggers, dubbed “adorable, in a somewhat bizarre way” by The New Yorker. She not only chronicles Harajuku street style, but lives it to the fullest: her daily blog is a whirlwind of Gothic Lolita girls, all-night Tokyo cyber parties, and cute cooking videos co-starring her Scottish Fold cat. Design, illustration, photography, film… La Carmina’s creativity extends in all directions but is united by her J-pop Goth aesthetic. With two books coming out this year – about crazy Tokyo theme restaurants and original recipes for cute food – this 24-year-old’s wild ride shows no sign of slowing down.”
My new book, Crazy Wacky Theme Restaurants, is also featured on the front page of my publisher’s website. Mark Batty Publisher is doing an awesome job at getting the word out; you can check out the Press Release and a recent news round-up. For more info about my Tokyo theme restaurants book and ordering info, clicky click.
Keep contest entries coming to win an Alessi designer sushi set from AllModern.com and one of three Pumpkin Rump pettipants from Gloomth! More entries means more prizes to give away in the future…

Dark Angel Rafael says:Congrats! I love video games. Nintendo DS has tons of video games. So many are fun and addicting. I don't own one yet. I have a Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP). It's my portable multi media station. I can listen to music, upload pics, change themes, surf the web, chat, listen to internet radio, watch movies, play video games, etc. I'm a proud PSP owner. But your handheld device is great as well! ^_^
