Our Adventures in Japan: furoku

furoku

When I saw this furoku (freebie) with a fashion magazine, I had to get it.

The furoku came with a calendar and book cover (and book mark) by Coach to celebrate Coach's 70th anniversary.

Unfortunately, the book cover is a tad bit small, only 11 cm (4 in) x 16.5 cm (6 in), a little too small for American sized novels.

Luckily, it fits my Japanese sized sketch book.

Can't wait to use my sketch book more, it's been awhile.

p.s. It's a National Holiday here (the Emperor's birthday) and the start of a 3-day weekend (although Satoshi has to work on Christmas), we're off to visit with my host-family today, hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
