Johnny Cupcakes is the original unordinary bakeshop.

After starting out of the trunk of a car in 2001, Johnny Cupcakes has grown to be an exclusive, international brand with "faux-bakeries" in Boston, London and Los Angeles. Over the past 10 years, an inspiring community of collectors has formed, prompting customers to camp outside the stores for up to two weeks for limited edition product releases.

I like the animal comparisons. I wonder if the elephant ones, are just a box of kitchen trash bags. Also, do bald eagles even have wieners?

I thought this was interesting. There’s a place called the ‘Cat Room’ where people pay to get in and they can play with cats for ‘x’ amount of time.

Crazy Audi dealership architecture. This photo does no justice, esp since it’s all optical illusion-y.

I’m taller than this truck. I’m honestly thinking about importing one of these next year.

The calm before the store. This intersection is INSANE when the walking lights turn green. I’ll try to post a video in the future. I thought I was a goner for sure.

I ate a the restaurant that Quentin Tarantino used for inspiration for the huge restaraunt fight scene in in Kill Bill (I can’t wait for his new movie!). And speaking of Tarantino – expect a Johnny Cupcakes x Tarina Tarantino collaboration in the future.

About to go hit the streets with my friend Andie. This is both of our first times in Japan and we’re wanting to move here.
