sarah dyer mentioned these on her blog several months ago, and i've been obsessed with them ever since. i can't quite justify spending 20-40 dollars on adorable tiny food minatures, but my inner nostalgic child really wishes i'd known about these when i was eight or ten and the best thing ever was my three-story dollhouse with working electricity. i could never find good food things to put on their tiny kitchen table. but those were its glory days, before our now-ancient cat discovered she could squeeze into the house through the window that was always coming off and made it one of her favorite hiding spots. it was like some crazy-ass horror movie, you know--just picture a giant kitten menacing all the little dollhouse people and their little china plates. it wasn't pretty.
sometimes i think about restoring that dollhouse--although the little bit of me that's at all realistic and common-sensical knows that it probably will live in my childhood bedroom forever, b/c how would you transport a behemoth dollhouse like that?
anyway, tiny food minatures are cool.
(confidential to my parents: i bet that awesome cute store in shadyside has the perfect little doodads to toss into a birthday package . . . haha, don't worry about it. i also accept kitchen gadgets. no, seriously, i'm just being silly, don't worry about it.)
