At the Japanese mall…

I have it on good authority that there is no Easter Bunny in Australia. Just the Easter Koala.

I love advertising that features the thing you are going to be eating feeling totally ecstatic at the prospect of being consumed.

Look! It’s an Alfie pillow-pet!

Back to the Japanese mall!

“Get. Us. Out. Of. Here.”

So much reading to do, if you already know how to read Japanese.

I will hug him, and pet him, and squeeze him and name him Pinchy!

What child has not fervently dreamed for their own pet lobster?
