Ain't been around much, a lot happenin' + some big thinking about next year – *but* before gets too stale, here's possibly my greatest achievement in community sparking and renegade parenting with 土田's 1st ever Santa appearance (with my kid in on papa's shenanigans) + fave elf

New matching family coffee cups, made by a Master Potter in Kumamoto
The smaller one more likely to be used for milk, possibly smoothies

Event went awesome! First ever neighborhood Christmas Santa Claus Funtime
Was concerned no one would show up but all 40 gift bags were gone, kids arriving by bicycles or with parents, elder folk were a delight – lots of peace signs and banter, Nat King Cole, Diana Krall and Bing Crosby with vibes

Spectacularly proud of my remarkable wife Ryoko for holding a "casual" tea ceremony at historic garden Korakuen in #Okayama as a tribute to her 93-year-old sensei // about 50 guests, both invited & impromptu enjoyed tea + wagashi // a stunning amount of preparation – every detail has a backstory

Stitched on a couple more patches on a herringbone denim work shirt and a sturdy khaki task jacket
Featuring #Cascadia mysterious "leader" Sasquatch, and a mushroom declaring "nature is magic" because of course
