Here’s another way the Japanese have fun with lunch – little food-shaped food cases! This one is shaped like onigiri, a Japanese rice ball. It’s pink with cherry blossoms on it, which the Japanese call sakura. But you don’t have to keep onigiri in this, of course – it’s suitable for [...]

The Japanese are brilliant when it comes to jazzing up their lunches. The only American who can compete is the woman behind Vegan Lunch Box! In addition to having 80 million different bento box styles, the Japanese also die-cut their vegetables with Hello Kitty Vegetable Cutters. Take a peek at this [...]

When I posted about pink footballs yesterday, I missed an example. Strangely enough, a company that sells sporting goods also sells a pink football purse for $125. It’s not actually made of a football, it’s just leather shaped like a football, with laces and handles attached. I suspect there is definitely [...]

Someone recently left a comment asking if there were any pink footballs out there. I thought for sure there must be, so I went in search of one. To my surprise, I couldn’t find anything! There’s pink jerseys, a pink uniform for girls, a pink field, and a controversial pink locker [...]

I don’t get it. Mariah Carey’s new perfume, Luscious Pink, is supposed to “evoke a day in Capri.” What? My perfume is supposed to evoke a place I’ve never been to? Olfactory memories are great, and if you’ve been to Capri perhaps this will remind you of it, but how [...]

My mom sent me a gallery of cats wearing the famous Hello Kitty costume, and suggested that I could try it on my cat Mischa, who will put up with all sorts of costumes and torture. So I set about looking for it, and finally located it – it turns out to be [...]

According to Think Before You Pink, a “pinkwasher” is:
A company that purports to care about breast cancer by promoting a pink ribbon campaign, but manufactures products that are linked to the disease.
In particular, the campaign references Yoplait yogurt, which is made with an artificial growth hormone that has been linked to breast cancer. [...]

I don’t know why people dye animals. I actually don’t really like this, but it’s pink, so I had to share. The pictured poodle here is the mascot of Pink Poodle Spa. There’s also this pink poodle. I don’t really understand why you’d do this, though. The animals on [...]

If you’d rather not make your own bear as previously described, you can buy this cute pink teddy at Build-A-Bear. It’s a little more expensive – only $25 for the bear, but you have to get accessories, that’s the point, right? If this guy doesn’t tickle your fancy, there’s a pink floral [...]
