Whimsical Inspiration

Dear Reader,

I stumbled across this wonderful piece of whimsical inspiration from the other side of the world. Simplicity can be so surprising :)


Reminded me just how universal the human condition is. Hope you enjoy it too!

Dear Reader,

Many thanks for the flood of support for our Kickstarter campaign to bring Squirrel King squirrel kits to life! Your support is truly awesome and inspiring to us :)

Don't worry though if you haven't found time to get involved yet, there's still a week to go! We've reached our initial target, so now comes the bonus time and the chance to make our kits a little more green and even more fun! Check our update on Kickstarter to see what just a little more money will allow us to do.

Like the squirrel band here, lets keep rocking!!

Yoga Squirrels

Dear Reader,

Just in case you were wondering how to make use of the entire "craft bonanza pack" pledge on our Squirrel Kits Kickstarter campaign, here's your answer: open a yoga studio!

Of course the kits do make great party gifts which is another idea :)

Seriously, thanks for all of your support so far! Keep spreading the word, there's some super wonderful "stretch goals" we can't wait to reveal once our initial target has been hit!

Peach Sunrise

Dear Reader,

What a wonderful weekend!

With squirrels and her younger sister (sporting her hot pink soccer jersey) overseeing her every move, Alien One baked her first contest pie this weekend. The occasion: an event organized by LA's art museum in conjunction with the `Good Food' talkshow on local public radio station KCRW.

Truly reflective of the deliciousness it contained, Alien One titled her creation Peach Sunrise to reflect the bountiful peaches and custardy goodness!

It was hard to say who was prouder, Chef Squirrel or Alien One serving the public at LACMA!
