things I'm liking (disliking)

Random things I'm liking and disliking....starting with disliking.

While this ginger ale made by Nose (no-say) Shuzo, a local brewery, is made with natural spring water from Nose, there is no indication of "fresh" ginger in here, just flavoring...boo!

I'm liking that most convenience stores have started serving freshly brewed coffee. Before, you could only buy brewed coffee in cans or in pre-packaged plastic cups.

The price is nice on the pocket too by being a little cheaper than those big chain types.

Kinda in the middle about these chocolates by ION, a Greek chocolate.

The milk chocolate is too sickly sweet and there isn't enough whole almonds (bottom of photo). Though I do like the hazelnut cream in between of the wafers (top of the photo).

This umeshu (apricot liqueur) that I received from Hiromi, was delicious. (Thank you!)

We enjoyed it several times, pouring a little of it into a cup and diluting it with some soda water.

And I am really liking these cute glass yogurt pots.

They are made in Japan and each holds about 90 mililiters. They also have a plastic cover which I didn't take a photo of. I put some fruit, yogurt and topped everything off with a little homemade granola. With picnic season coming soon, I can't wait to bring these along.

What are you enjoying these days?
