Mother’s Day Gift Alert: Design-Your-Own Flip MinoHD Camcorder (including Sanrio!)

Heather Kuldell — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 17:03:00 GMT

Chris shared his Flip-camcorder crush before and now I’m joining the fan club. The latest version of the line of tiny camcorders records in high definition. That’s right: It can capture the cute, gooey, silly and otherwise memorable moments of your kids’ lives in remarkable detail. Oh, but there’s more.

While Flip MinoHD ($229) offers many easy-to-use features — the flip-out USB connector, instant upload to many video-sharing sites like YouTube, FlipShare editing software and compatibility with iTunes, iPhoto and iMovie — you can also customize each one. I heart the incredible selection of Sanrio characters from Hello Kitty, Badtz Muru and even discontinued characters like Keroppi and TuxedoSam. If Sanrio’s not your thing, they have an abundance of other choices from textures, patterns, matadors, animals, ninjas or a ton of other artwork. The fee for this extra touches? Nothing. The MinoHD will still cost $229 and will ship in one day when in stock.

Hello, Breakfast!

Inspired by Aaron's post about embracing the Dark Side of toast, I offer up another out-of-this-world breakfast option: the Hello Kitty toaster. Anyone for milk toast?

Think of Hello Kitty’s Office Suite as a Secretary of Sorts

I wish I could say Lisa’s Hello Kitty watch post that put the famous feline on my brain, but the truth is that I’m just fan. (We share the same initials and we’re both Scorpios, so, yes, I’m a dork about it.) Naturally I’ve added the Hello Kitty Office Suite to our back-to-school list even though I have no intention of actually sending it out of the house. I mean, there have to be forms I’ll need to staple and return, right?

The suite features a wholesome outdoor theme: The stapler resembles a seesawing log, the paper clip holder looks like a pond and the tape dispenser is shaped like a slide. Each piece can be purchased individually for $16 at fredflare.com.
