Time To Wear Your Favorite Food!

It’s nearing the end of a BIG FOOD WEEKEND. As you all know, I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT JAPAN. I love their energetic embracing of all aspects of life – and I love that they love plastic food:

    • As Tom Petty sang – in a great song “Good To Be King”:
      “It’s good to be king, if just for a while
      To be there in velvet, yeah, to give ’em a smile
      It’s good to get high and never come down
      It’s good to be king of your own little town
      Yeah, the world would swing if I were king
      Can I help it if I still dream time to time”
