Local Shout Outs

Hey Starbuck, mission accomplished. One pair of Star Wars light sabre chopsticks. We were having dinner with friends and, oh yeah 5th floor kiddo playlando, Harijuku Station. It's good to know people.


















Do they really sell enough of these to need two versions? And what does Speed Alice refer to?
btw the two baby doll outfits were sold at the Loft, kind of like a Z gallery.



















I guess Japanese Emo kids have a lot to disposable income. These were not cheap and very well made.










This remains a mystery. I can confirm that it was glazed, and there was a line out the door for them, and the cut away showed many thin layers of a kind of cake.





Hey Starbuck, the business cat is alive and well and riding the Tokyo subway.
















Just starting to get the glossy food shots out.
I'm a few days behind. We pulled into Kyoto today via bullet train. In Japan, it all about the train or subway station, which at times blur into shopping centers, hang out, cultural stage. Not very many car parks, but many bicycle parking lots. It's a bicyclist heaven here with marked off lane and paths etc. Of course they actually stop at stop sign and lights even if no one is coming.





The Japanese cook fish too.













Scallops with parm cheese on a red sauce.

Kobe beef. Yes it's that good, and they swear they were happy cows.

starbuck is gleefully happy, i have an angelic glow right now. i think i expressed it best to pearlcream "wow yay wow!" you are the bestest.
your blog is the bestest. we are all enjoying it so much. it has made the day so good, but you've brought on a lot of confusion see equations:
starwars = glee
alice = weird ... uncomfortable ...awkward.
glazed rolling things and all food items. = hungry ... again.
