It felt more like spring today! Took a walk in the park with my husband and our Westie, and the plum blossoms were in full bloom. The air was filled with their sweet scent, making for a peaceful and refreshing stroll.

Woke up, opened the curtains, and boom—Fuji-san in full winter mode! ❄️
It’s like someone sprinkled powdered sugar all over it overnight.
A stunning view right from our apartment, and best of all… no hiking required!

One out the door—to drive out evil. One inside—our Westie ate it. One off the balcony—to bring in good fortune.
Mission accomplished… kinda. #節分 #Setsubun

I first saw this musical in 1998, the year of its debut. Today, I’m back, this time on my own. The show now has its own dedicated theater, and the experience feels even more special.
Here’s a photo of the stunning venue—perfect for this timeless masterpiece!

Couldn’t finish it, though. Shared half with my neighbor. Food is great, but good conversations? That’s the real feast.

Funny how even a tiny coin makes you wonder: ‘Take it? Leave it?’
I left it. Maybe it’s still waiting for the next overthinker. 💭🪙

A friend sent me these photos this morning. The first is from Vancouver in 1958—a little boy meeting Santa. The second? That same boy all grown up, now playing Santa for his grandchild.
Even on December 29th, the Christmas spirit is alive and well!

Her: ‘Oh, I’ve been investing for 10 years. The profits are insane.’
Me: Wait… what? Life lesson: never assume, and maybe start earlier!

After enjoying soba at a cozy spot in Ibaraki, the kind owner handed me fresh satoimo saying,
“Take some Ibaraki veggies home to Tokyo!” 🥔✨
Simple kindness, simple joy.
