Thunderstorm viewing before we realized it was just above us and well, staying on the roof ain’t smart.
Finally came around to visit Monsta Sweets ❤️(… I’m very わがまま but I’d really like the option to order online cause it’s a bit of a hike 😅). The store is lovely!
I cannot deny my son’s point when he says good is not great 🫠 This is Friday’s meal (mandatory 給食). This is the SOLE negative point I have between 保育園 (meals cooked in the kitchen with fresh ingredient) and 幼稚園 (central kitchen delivery).
Whatever your plans for the weekend, the incoming W typhoon combo might derail them, or so said the news earlier today. Apparently this happened in 2011 and 2019 and created a bit of chaos all over the place.
When I think I was left to play around farms and fields, all summer days when I was a kid (＊it was another time, please don’t do that), and my child now needs to check a manual before playing in a random park 😂
Oh ! Je veux bien une info 😆 : s’ils vendent toujours des porte-clefs en forme de pompon fourrure (j’ai mis un exemple, mais ceux qu’ils vendent sont bien plus beaux).
This is the one cycling rule I don‘t get. I view this as more dangerous. A cyclist should be able to give direction with their arms and turn like a car. This type of half baked rules (”be on the road but don’t behave like a vehicule”) is the cause of the chaos.
For the next few weeks, you’ll be flooded with random cherry blossoms pics.
Life got busy, but I’m finally ✨done✨ Would have liked a sewing machine to speed up the process, but it’s quite relaxing to sew 🧵
Diet journal: Good: I have fresh bread every day Bad: I have fresh bread every day
Thinking of replacing our aging healsio with a bistro but the price 🥹 I dislike the push for over spec in appliances with functionality that we will never, ever, use. They lead to unbelievable prices… But, because we have some specific criteria we have to bite the bullet 😭
This is actually super interesting as we have more and more applicants asking about digital material, and wanting apps, and the ability to use a tablet/computer in class, and not wanting "textbooks."
My weakness is 7/11 macaron series and I kid you not: I regularly check PR times to see when their next macaron will hit the store 🤤. A tad bit disappointed because I don’t like tea stuff, but at least they didn’t pick matcha (bweh). Anyway, I need to make space in my freezer now 😂.
The world is very scary rn so here’s my son train set up. Let me buy toys and forget we’re heading into dark ages brought to us by Tech Bros & Evil leaders.
The Sky Tree elevator incident is my worst fear, and my husband knows me too well as he shared the news with the following comment:
And here they are. Two little bags. Fully lined 🥹. Total time invested: 8 hours. 5 hours for the first one. 3 hours for the second (✨growth✨). Are the stitches perfect? No. Did I learn patience and how to thread a needle without swearing? Also no. But apparently… I can sew now. 🧵🪡
