“Wahhhh! Daddy got mommy an insane birthday present. A Nintendo DS Lite in rose metallic and the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney video game!”

Mia Farrow autograph, signature of Rosemary's Baby actress, Scottish Fold cat, yellow ribbon, Nintendo DS lite in rose metallic pink color, Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney video game for Nintendo DS, pink wrapping paper, cute pet cat birthday party.

“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 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 wild ride shows no sign of slowing down.”

Crazy Wacky theme restaurants by La Carmina, cute kawaii monkey, Mark Batty Publisher is an independent publisher dedicated to making distinctive books on the visual art of communicating, showcasing the visual power and innovation of contemporary culture.

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.

    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! ^_^

    This is my first video game system since Super Nintendo, Sega and Gameboy!

    I hear there's a great kanji-learning or translation program for DS… I'll have to get that.
