My husband loves cake but he rarely asks for one on his birthday. This year I thought I would surprise him with a small cake that let him know how much the kids and I love him even if he is another year older. My hubby LOVES movies and the geek in me simply could NOT … Continue reading
Bethany turned 10 recently and you know what that means … CAKE! 10! Holy cow. Where does the time go! I can’t believe she’s now in double digits… and yikes, so close to being a teenager. This year Bethany surprised us by asking for a “How to Train Your Dragon” theme. I custom designed the … Continue reading
I love models. When I was a teenager one of the small delights I enjoyed outside of homework and writing was sitting down with a pile of moulded plastic bits and figuring out how to glue them together correctly. Mostly planes, occasionally boats and sometimes cars… but mostly planes. Unfortunately my family didn’t see the … Continue reading
Movies draw out some interesting marketing campaigns and affiliated products but these little gems my husband picked up for me on a recent visit to South Korea have to take the cake. What are they you ask? Officially licensed Transformers branded beauty hydro gel masks for men. Not masks you wear around in public using your Peter … Continue reading

Now the World Cup is over, Telford Plaza has quickly updated their display with a mini Transformers Expo to compliment the giant Bumblebee over in Telford Plaza 2. If you or your kids are fans of Transformers and live in Hong Kong then this is a mall worth visiting to immerse into the past and present … Continue reading
There were more than just Transformers at the ACGHK so I thought it only fair to post about everything else we saw at the Ani-Com as well. For a geek mum like me this was anime and superhero heaven. Loads of franchises I know and even more I don’t! I found it curious that many of … Continue reading
Hidden in an obscure little area of Hong Kong Disneyland between Adventureland and Grizzly Gulch is a small, simplistic but fun little display for the new Disney movie Planes Fire & Rescue (coming out in Hong Kong sometime in August). On display are Dusty Crophopper, the hero of the original Planes movie and Blade Ranger … Continue reading
Tis the season for Transformers posts… Hong Kong seems to be embracing the new Transformers movie with a vengeance. Even I am surprised at what we are finding in our travels. While over in Kowloon Bay we encountered a Transformers display at Telford Plaza 2. My apologies in advance for the quality of the photos. … Continue reading
