キユーピ (Kewpie)
I found my mum’s vintage Kewpie doll (キユーピ pronounced kyoo-pee). It had a hole in its plastic head. 
I’m not sure if it’s authentic but it has the trademark wings on its back. In Japan, it is popularised by being the mascot for a same brand mayonnaise. However, this doll was originally created by Rose Cecil O’Neill from Nebraska, USA.
Zakka-Zakka Shop
Sorry for the lack of updates, I am deciding between Zen Cart and Mal’s e-commerce or writing my own shopping cart script. My dilemma is I don’t have a lot of inventory but want to gauge the demand for my goods. Zen Cart is a pain to customise but there’s inventory management so people can’t buy stuff that are out of stock. On the other hand, Mal’s e-commerce is a breeze to customise but unable to track remaining stock. Writing my own script is too time consuming and tedious. Can’t wait to show what I’ve in-stored for you (pun intended), I’ll be back soon, promise!
