Retro Camera Edtion

In the wolrd of digital photography now I love how these cameras are still held in great awe and respect, even though they were unrealiable sometimes and not always produces a perfect shot, I think now we are always guareented to produce a great shot, and if we dont we can photo edit it!

I  think the resurgence in vintage camera love and admiration is perfect, and these great tattoos show such how many people out there love them! Of course if could just be nostalgia!

This one, has some great old skool stuff with is, a great composition and fantastic depth of colour

Simple Black Shading

Elsies amazing Polaroid! Thats gotta of hurt and I admire her dedication!

This cute Rolleiflex and Rose

Polyvore Fun!

For the Love of...

Yesterday we went to Hyper Japan and had a great day. Fantastic food, lots of fun, cute and wonderfully cool things to purchase and some great fashion!

The little ones where very tired, which made the day a little hard at times, but when they discovered Edame Beans 2 pots for £1 they where happy! Simple wants my two girls!

The previous day had been spoken about on the twitter and facebook networks about how super busy it was and that there where huge queues and people who couldn't get in, so we set of super early and got there just after the doors had opened, there was a bit of a queue but nothing compared to the queue when we left at about 3pm!

This was taken when we came out, and the queue was literally all the way down to the point of the big pink arrow on the picture...plus round the corner! Blimey!

I did feel really sorry for everyone who was left in the queue at the point I heard a door guy say that they where at capacity and it was one in one out! But on the plus point, it was obviously a huge success so I look forward to a bigger and better one next year!

Here are some pics of choice from the day, I'm going to share a few pics now, and save some for some more posts later in the week.

We are huge fan of Japanese food in the Parsons household and I try to make sushi whenever someone gets the craving. Although it's much more fun to go Yo Sushi, and not have to stand in the kitchen for hours making it, but alas funds don't always allow so make our own!

My little ones favourite though is Banana Pandan from our local Asian Supermarket!but any kawaii sweet treats go down well!

I made these sugar cookies ages ago, should totally make some more!

These cupcakes are to die for!

In fact little Rosie is hoping there will be some at Hyper Japan, but we will have to see what treat are in store for us there on Sunday

I also like to include little bento style to the kids lunch boxes, as a cute treat every now and again, nothing can brighten up a day like a smiling biscuit or Hello Kitty Rice Ball! Although I really should try out some of these great ideas
