meme and a birthday

First off, it is Satoshi's grandma's birthday today...she is 100. Every year the cyclamen that we had bought for her blooms and to me, seems to be getting fuller and fuller every year.

I posted about this plant awhile back, you can read about it here. (Happy Birthday, Hikone Grandma!)

Now for the meme....Ilingc of Feed me! I'm Hungry! tagged me for a meme, similar to one I did awhile back, but I'm still game to play...here goes.

10 years ago... I was working at a tour agency, looking to find a way out, I think this maybe the time I applied at the C.I.A. and F.B.I.

1 year ago... I was exploring Kyoto on a foodie adventure.
