Few people can reduce the Department of Impossible Cuteness to a puddle of giggles and squees like Japanese food and craft blogger Caroline (previously featured here). Her latest kawaii features hand-sculpted candy cats snoozing under a cozy kotatsu, with a snack of miniature mandarin oranges waiting for them when they wake up.
The kotatsu is a piece of traditional Japanese furniture comprised of a low, wooden table covered by a futon or heavy blanket, with a heater built into the underside of the table, which sounds like heaven for both chilly kitties and humans. Now please excuse while we go submit a formal request to have our desks replaced with kotatsu.
