I love Yuko Shimizu's work. She's a wonderfully talented artist who has worked on illustrations for the likes of Gap, Pepsi, Penguin, Scholastic, DC Comics and Rolling Stone. She writes about her Monsters and Mythical Creatures: "I always get excited to create imaginary creatures, that are not really human, not really animals... I had a lot of fun with them."

Mama Zuma's Revenge potato chips and its bizarre background story
I bought Mama Zuma's Revenge potato chips at Mexican and Latin grocery Belmonte Latin Foods mainly because I've never seen it before in Singapore and also because the wrapper says "these chips are made with some of the hottest peppers on the planet." Being a spicy food lover, I'm always game to try out really hot stuff. After biting into the chips, I have to say Mama Zuma's Revenge is the spiciest potato chips I've eaten! Here's an advice: Get ready plenty of glasses of water if you eat these chips.
On the back of the wrapper, they wrote down a rather interesting and funny background story about Mama Zuma's Revenge. Here it is: "Get too close to Mama Zuma and you will get burned. This woman is determined to scorch everyone in her path. Mama Zuma's weapons are the hottest jalapeno and habanero pepers this side of the Rio Grande. Since she lost the love of her life in a bizarre and tragic accident, Mama Zuma has been hell bent on turning every mouth she kisses with her special brand of passion." With a story like that, how can you not want to try Mama Zuma's Revenge aye?
Boing Boing fruity drink spotted in Singapore
I was at this Mexican grocery called Belmonte Latin Foods and spotted this cool drink called Boing. I thought I should put the two bottles together so that the words on the bottles read out Boing Boing, one of my favourite blogs.
Inside Nintendo's company guide
Take a look inside Nintendo's 2014 company compendium which is given to employees. The guide has information on Nintendo's history, strategy, departments and management. It is so beautifully illustrated that I think every new Nintendo staff would be happy just to own one.
