Hmm... I have mixed feelings about the Art of Bloom. In a way, I equate it to LACMA's Rain Room…read more.. where you pay to be in one room. There are 2 ish rooms - first room is the main event with the flowers scattering their petals mingled with scents. The lighting also changes depending on your ambient temperature which was neat as well! The next room uses their AR app where you take pictures of the little things that pop out at you on little platforms. There's a shop, then a mini area where you can smell the scents broken apart - then you head back to the main room to reassess the smells. While I did enjoy the room and artistry... I would suggest the AR room to include opportunities to be able to fit ourselves in all of them. It was difficult because you needed to put your camera so close to the platforms so we were unable to be in it. I had a fun time, but I think maybe a few more rooms would have been nice! They do have a lot of events that sound really cool to do in the room, but they cost more than the $25 ish I spent for this. It made for cute pictures though! P A R K I N G There's a lot nearby that gives 2 hour free parking! The exhibit shouldn't take you much longer than an hour, although I stayed a bit to sit and smell the roses! ;)

I was getting a lot of ads on The Art of Bloom (TAOB) on Instagram so I finally bought tickets and…read morewent to see it for myself. I bought a student ticket for about $21, including service fees. The tickets have timed entry slots and it is recommended to come 5 minutes before your slot but no later than 15 minutes after. We got in, scanned our tickets and signed a waiver, and then we were led to the first exhibit. The first exhibit was their main attraction - a flowered ceiling with lights and petals falling. It was very beautiful and definitely IG-worthy. We were the only ones there so we got to take as many photos as we wanted. The second exhibit is the AR one. You need to download their app and then you can hover over the displays and see cool AR flowers bloom, petals fall, or little people running around. The third "exhibit" is the gift shop. They had perfume, shirts, and tote bags. We bought the AR stickers (a pack of 6 for about $5) so we could use the app at home and see the cool AR flowers and people. Overall, the pop-up was very interactive and elegant. However, it was small and short (we finished in about 30-40 minutes). I loved looking at everything but it is a bit pricey for what it is.

I wanted to go to this location because I knew that parking wouldn't be an issue. Kelly picked up and answered the phone in the most professional manner. She did get a visual of what I was asking for and was kind and helpful enough to tell me about the other styles. Told Kelly I would be there very soon and was greeted by Kelly. They allowed only two people in at a time because of social distancing. I got to see touch and feel the difference between the butterfly and 3pc razor. It's a lot different seeing things in person than just ordering online. I ended up picking up the butterfly with the longer handle. They had tons of reusable items and refills for sale. I managed to pick up a wooden soap dish and stain remover soap bar. Transaction was done with card. I would have paid cash if I brought enough. Thanks Kelly!

Doggo Nice Day treats are an absolute hit with my pup, Mello!

If I try to follow him, he just dashes to another room! I think it's safe to say these are his all-time favorite treats. The wonderful lady who makes them is truly the sweetest. She's kind, loving, and always welcoming. Mello adores her and is always thrilled to see her. It's clear that every single treat is made with love and care.

Walking into POP MART feels like stepping into a world where everything is next-level adorable…read more.. and next-level expensive.Honestly, I'd hate to be a parent in here because every single item is tempting. It's one of those stores where you look around and think, "Okay, I don't need this... but I definitely want it."Now, I'll be real--the whole blind box/surprise box concept isn't really my thing. The idea of having to keep buying boxes just to hopefully get the one you actually want? Yeah... that would drive me a little crazy. BUT... then I saw the Snow White piece. And wow. I'm obsessed. They had this huge Snow White art/toy display that completely pulled me in. Do I need to spend over $1,000 on a collectible art toy? Absolutely not. Do I want to? Also yes.Luckily, they had a smaller version for around $300, which still feels like a splurge... but way more within reach (kind of ). Guess I just need to start playing the lottery--fingers crossed. Super fun store to browse, even if you're just window shopping and dreaming a little.

Attended the Queen Mary Night Market summer events in 6/2024 …read more Lo and behold I spot Khin Khao amongst the crowd as one of the participants vendors . Of course my contemplation of what to eat has been decided. Khin Khao for the win , as always the friendly service and tasty food has remained consistent . My usual favorite from here are their mango sweet rice dessert , boat noodles and the beef salad . Others boat noodles are sweet , not at khin khao, their flavors was superb with a melding of savory goodness taste . Mango sweet rice dessert is a seasonal dish on their menu, I made sure to order a few container for the next day . ( depending on yellow mango season) definitely a must buy from them . Tip: when at home take out the sticky rice and steam until warm or a steam in the steamer. Pour in the sweet sauce into the warm rice mix well and eat with the mango . Yumm

It reminded me just like how my friends momma used to cook for me in high school. Taste brought back memories. Perfect char and smokey taste to beef as well. Pickled veg was also really good, not very sweet or bitter but a nice freshness with the beef. Similar to this white kimchi so I loved it! Can't wait to try their other menu options, but the skewers will not disappoint if you . I can't explain it but the seasoning on it is just amazing. Follow them on ig for event updates :)

Both times were the cookie platters and let me tell you - they are an INSTANT hit with everyone who has tried them. I gave out her instagram handle to everyone I knew like it was Halloween. The quality is so good and more importantly not too sweet. I love a good cookie when it's not too rich. This is dangerously perfect because I could've easily eaten that platter on my own lol. I need to visit her again and order something soon. She has new creative menu items all the time and I have no doubt they're just as amazing. Someone invite me to a party so I have an excuse to bring some dessert! Lol
