Happy Lunar Year! I made a #gabbysdollhouse drawing of DJ Catnip, Cakey, and the Cupcake Cousins to symbolize my recent trip to Asia for the holiday aka the Spring Festival in Asia. www.instagram.com/share/BAEzJX...

I had a hearty fantuan here (rice tightly wrapped around breakfast ingredients like a burrito with no tortilla) but I overdid it getting the gua bao (like a steamed bread taco). Soy milk comes with a yo tiao (fried cruller dough stick) to dip in it. No tables but there is a small park nearby w seats

I didn’t try it but Domino’s has some crazy offerings in Taiwan! They got pizzas w a cheese dip built into the center! I mean, maybe I would try one out of morbid curiosity on a future trip lol

If you are in Taiwan during Lunar New Year and want to send postcards, go to Lai Hao gift shops (in Ximen and Yong Kang) because they also sell postage stamps which you will need when the post office is closed for the holiday.

Back in LA and my car battery is dead of course. Otherwise generally considering myself really lucky that my water & power is fine and the LA fires are finally contained! Will post more about TW but this sums up my trip for now & why I need to switch to salads & smoothies for the next month or three

I wandered more into Ximending & found a tiny shop that sells custom ink stamps with really cute Sanrio character handles, so I got one with my Chinese name and they made it so fast! In an alley behind Uniqlo near some tattoo parlors. Here’s how it turned out:

Happy Lunar New Year from Taipei! Gong Xi Fa Cai! (Hope you get rich!) Wishing you all good health and happiness. Here are cute Lion dancers I saw from inside Ximen Red House

The coffee donut from Mister Donut tasted weird so I had to redeem it today with a double berry one. Also picked up a Pon de Lion and French Cruller lamb toy. Taking a bite in Ximen in front of a cute goddess display.

So lucky to find postage stamps sold at Lai Hao gift shop because the post office is closed during the holiday. Figuring out who gets which postcard now.

Quick stop in fun Yongkang, may need to head back to shop & eat more but I need to check if I even have space left in my luggage 😅 I love Lai Hao & Jumeng gift shops for their stylish, fun, & cute gifts. Also there is a corner shop that has the best freeze dried fruit and yummy yogurt samples.

Here are some figures of monsters that are hidden in snack packages? Found in a toy store at Eslite Spectrum Xindian mall, where I also found more Gabby Dollhouse toys & got my nails done. Then I went to Taipei 101 & had a Mister Donut.

I read somewhere that it’s bad luck to buy books during Lunar New Year (which sounds oddly fascist to me lol) but I went back to Eslite to browse their fun gift section. I didn’t buy these but you can pretend I did. (I did get some cute Frixion pens & Snoopy tape, though.)

Wooderful Life has enchanting shops around Taipei, where you can customize mechanical wooden musical wind-up toys. They sell a few other token crafts too, so I bought a Chip ‘n’ Dale punch embroidery kit.

Here’s my ice cream burrito getting rolled up
January 29, 2025 at 1:48 PM
I got a zongzi (sticky rice dumpling), guava juice, a jumbo spicy fried chicken fillet, and of course the ice cream burrito! Not pictured: strawberries wrapped in red bean/ taro and mochi that I’m saving for later. #ningxianightmarket

Ningxia Night Market was overwhelming; I felt like I had to pick 3-4 things at most. I browsed a kids’ game section at the front for a break. A couple food booths were closed and others had ridiculous lines already. Even the oyster omelet place nearby had a crazy queue. Some booths I skipped:

I just had a cherimoya for lunch and then headed to the Ningxia Night Market… where there were just too many people and queues, oh noooo

So… is it time to get a trainer and level up Sarah-Connor style now? (I gotta burn off the 50lbs I gained in Asia anyway) Gahhhhh!

Was this robot Chinese dance show related to Deepseek or is it just another horrifying tech company?
January 29, 2025 at 1:07 PM
Trying to comprehend this game show (which seems like some innocent knockoff of Squid Games) in my Taipei hotel just reminds me how poor my Chinese is 😩 –never mind my Diamond levels on Duolingo

A cab driver told me that the biggest Toys “R” Us in Taiwan is near my hotel, which is open despite the holiday. Nice to see the Cakey oven & Kitty Camera almost sold out & the Carlita (which I designed) so prominently on the shelves! A-meowzing!

This is the longest I’ve ever stayed in hotels and it’s going to be a harsh adjustment back to normal life in my cluttered & likely smoky LA apartment. 😅 Even w. various world events and disasters, I feel immensely lucky. Thinking about my friends back in LA. Gonna find some PPE to bring back home.
