I bet you didn't know that Germany had a whole magazine dedicated to Hello Kitty. (Unless you're from Germany...then you might have known.)

And I bet you also didn't know that I was in it!
Cool, huh?


They asked me to do a little interview in it a while back, and I just got my copy in the mail. Hot dog!


It's so neat to be in a magazine from another country! I felt kinda special. :o) 
Paige however, was not as much impressed with my interview as the free stickers that came with "her magazine".


I'm not sure if etiquette allows for me to share my interview questions, but maybe I'll share them later on down the road after the magazine isn't on newsstands anymore. :O)

So, that's my little news for the day! Pretty cool! 

I have a few projects that I've been meaning to share, but to tell you the truth, I've been putting it off because I'm afraid that you guys will think they're stupid. Haha. Do you ever worry about that? I'm sure we all do. Someone once left a comment saying that I shouldn't confess my insecurities in my posts because I don't come off sounding confident. They're probably right; Martha Stewart probably didn't get where she was by feeling insecure. But I don't want that kind of life, I don't like to pretend like that. Anyway, I'm rambling now. Don't worry, I'll get over it and get my ideas posted. Besides, you guys are always so nice about everything, even if you think my ideas are stupid you never say so! That's just another reason why I love you. :O)

Have a fantastic day now, everyone! Auf wiedersehen!
Love,
Disney

    Congrats!
    And yes, working on one of those said posts right now :) I think we all have insecurities, and it's silly to think we couldn't share them. Makes us human. Keep on keepin' on dear :)

    EH!? Did you do a Hello Kitty-related project?

    And yeah, if you're trying to be a business-type person, in which Martha Stewart kinda is, then insecurities aren't good. But I come here because the projects are cute and they come from a real person to real people, so sharing them is perfectly perfect :)

    Wow, that's so cool! I was a kid living in Japan when Hello Kitty was first introduced (you can tell how old I am!) and knew my life would never be the same.

    So stinkin' cool about your magazine article!! And your ideas are awesome, but I totally understand that feeling of thinking what you are doing others may find silly....we all feel that at times I am sure!! Insecurities make you real and relate-able!! You go girl!! Keep doing what you are doing, that's why we love you and your blog! :)

    I always love reading your blog because you are so real. Anyone who says that you are showing that your insecure is crazy, because I think it shows that your a real person, and not fake like some other people out in blog land. Anyway, I kind of went off on a tangent there, I just wanted to say that I love your blog and can't wait to see those projects!!

    umm pretty sure if your ideas were at all ever "stupid" then you wouldn't be getting asked by foreign magazines to do interviews! ;) Oh and ps I keep reading blogs if the author's seem real, otherwise I feel intimidated and sub par.

    But this is just awesome! :D

    OMG... I'm getting this issue of the magazine... But I am going to pretend it's for my niece. Even if nobody asks... Haha, no seriously she gets it when I finished your interview.
    I did know there is a Hello Kitty magazine, because friends gave me two issues once for my birthday. I thought that was hilarious...

    Don't be insecure, you can't and shouldn't please everyone and not everyone is going to like what you post. But to me you always rock and I'm sure most of your followers think so too, no matter what...

    I like that you talk about your insecurities. It validates my own insecurities about things. So when you have them, I can think, hmmm...she had them and look at the brilliant stuff she made in spite of them. It makes you more relatable that way!

    Congrats on the publication!

  24. NikellOctober 21, 2011 at 8:20 AM

    Huge congrats on the magazine!! Showing your insecurities makes you transparent and more relatable in my opinion. I'm sure the projects are fabulous. And if not, so what we all have not-so-good projects (I'm sure Martha does too). I'll support ya anyway ^_^

    Isn't that sewing /crafting. Every gift I make takes 2x longer than it should. It takes time to work up the courage to make something instead of buy it, and it takes a lot of courage for me to give it.

    It never seems quite perfect enough.

    Keep up the inspiring work. you may not be like Martha- but your daughter won't write a mean tell-all book like her daughter did.

    Dearest Disney!
    You are featured on another countrys' magazine and still have insecurities???
    And i thought i had a long way! :)
    Let alone that there are no stupid ideas, only snobish people...
    ...whom you don't want reading your blog anyway!
    Can't wait to read more on those ideas.
    I must also confess to be sharing some of your great projects with my children in sunday school,
    and i thank you dearly.
    All the best!

    Hi there,
    wow -- I'm surprised how many other posts are from Germany!! I live in Germany too, and I just found your blog today. How exciting. I also did not know that there was a hello kitty magazine, but my two sisters love Hello Kitty, so it might be interesting to check it out sometime. I'm American, but I am already living here since 2008... How'd they approach you? So neat!
    Hope you have a great week.
