Tofu Tuesday: King for a day
I would argue that Tofu is in fact king every day. He does rather suit a crown though don’t you think?

Tofu the bunny has never been much of a drinker. He either doesn’t get thirsty or forgets to drink water. Good thing there is plenty of water in all the fresh vegies and grass that he eats. We recently bought him a water bottle and after a few lessons, (yes, a rabbit must be taught how to use a water bottle) he now drinks from it on his own.
Love this branding by Pixelinme, a branding agency based in Germany. “HAARMAGIE” is the modern chain of hair salons in Germany…The main idea of the logo is based on the company name “HAARMAGIE”, which literally means “Hair Magic” in german. In order to symbolize the magic in it’s widely recognizable and positively comprehensive way, we have picked the “Magic Cylinder”. The hair stylist scissors were chosen to indicate the company business and its creative combination, reminding rabbit ears, creatively identifies our client’s business. The harmonic font and color choice complete the visual identity and meet our client’s goal in a most innovative way.” View this project and more on their website: http://www.pixelin.me
The Koala and I hadn’t seen Tofu the bunny all day and went went out and didn’t get home until midnight. The Koala went to fetch Tofu the bunny from our backyard and was surprised to find traces of pink lipstick on his fluffy bunny head. Sometimes we wonder if Tofu the bunny leads a mysterious double life. I think this proves it. Photos taken from the morning after. The lipstick was less prominent, but still there. So, which one of you has been kissing Tofu?
Poster for Town Cutler by designer/illustrator Craig Frazier. See more of his work over here at http://www.craigfrazier.com. Town Cutler is a top of the line artisan knife and cutlery shop in San Francisco. I’m not sure what this poster represents, but I couldn’t help but think of these death rabbits. Equal parts badass and adorbs.

Tofu the bunny heard there was a boy who likes robots. Tofu the bunny vs Gundam.
Melissa Pierce’s Behance portfolio caught my eye recently, particularly this project for Ground in Queensland, Australia. You can see this project and more of Melissa’s work on her Behance portfolio here: www.behance.net/melissaleepierce Ground Organics is a cafe serving organic food and coffee. I love this sweet watercolour rabbit and the photography is lovely too. Their Facebook cover photo is pretty cute too…
We received a wonderfully summery bounty from The Honesty Box this week. Strawberries, raspberries, avocados, plums, nectarines, peaches, cherry tomatoes and more. Tofu the bunny had never met a raspberry before so I figured it was time. I thought that it would be love at first sniff but he wouldn’t even give it a lick. OK little bunny. Suit yourself. I’ll just leave it here in case you change your mind. When I checked on the raspberry a few hours later, it had vanished. *Please note, raspberry is a very occasional treat for rabbits…Maybe once in a lifetime.
My sister saw these knitted headphones on Monday Bunday and brought a set home from Australia. Tofu tries them on for size.
Our friend Maxie left her sunglasses behind so we’re looking after them until we see her next. Summer is here!
This bunny illustration for Wild Side Cider (Strawberry and Lime) is by Auckland-based illustrator Galima Akhmetzyanova for creative agency BARNES, CATMUR & FRIENDS. In this series there are other flavours with their own creatures but I bet the bunny labelled strawberry and lime cider tastes the best. You can see more of Galima’s work at her Behance page here or her Cargo Collective page here. “The rugged landscape of Central Otago makes it the perfect breeding ground for all sorts of wild fruit. Unfortunately it’s also a breeding ground for wild rabbits, and if there’s one thing that breeds like rabbits, it’s rabbits. Famous for terrorising motorists and annoying farmers, they’re also keen strawberry pickers. We are too, so we put them in our cider.”
Tofu can be often be found snoozing under the stairs outside.
Following Tofu around the yard, he turns to face the camera.
Meet Cream the bunny. Cream is moving from New Zealand to Japan today and we wish him and his family a safe journey. Last weekend, Cream and his owner, Yoshi came for a play date to meet Tofu and to say goodbye. The Koala and I met Yoshi through The Japanese Art Festival which he runs. Over the years we have become friends, first exhibiting our work and more recently, helping with the design, promotion and running of the event. The Japanese Festival will be sadly missed as Yoshi and family move back to Japan. Tofu hasn’t seen a bunny in about 5 years so this was a very special visit. Tofu was the dominant one but Cream had his sight and therefore the upper hand. Cream also showed us a few binkys (random twisting rabbit jumps) to say he was quite pleased. The bunnies were curious of each other and Tofu took his time carefully examining Cream’s carry case while Cream explored our house. The Koala even got to hold both bunnies at once. …
Tofu the bunny has free reign of our backyard, but the front yard isn’t fenced and is relatively unchartered territory. He has escaped on few occasions, but not since he became blind. I let Tofu roam on his own while keeping a close eye on him. He had a sniff and a nibble around the front steps but decided on his own that he wouldn’t make a run for it and ended up taking himself back inside.
I wear headphones all the time at work to listen to comedy and music. I believe these knitted headphones would make jokes 37% funnier and my favourite songs 53% awesomer. AU$14.95 at Typo Cotton On over here.
What a tough guy.
