this and that

I don't remember seeing tiger lilies that were pink before...I always thought they were orange...

These kind of remind me of jellyfish for some reason...

Have you tried this granola? I love that it is a good reason to eat chocolate and nuts for breakfast.

It has been so hot and humid, so we cut our walking route.

We usually go to Benny Supermarket and a convenience store along the way and then we try to get back home as soon as possible.

Now no detours or exploring...too krazy hot.

The premade foods at Benny are old skool...nimono (simmered foods), some fried foods...when we get tired of convenience food, their food hits the spot.

Been trying all the taco salads at the convenience stores...

So far the ones I have tried use soy meat...

Didn't like the texture of the "meat" at Family Mart, but loved the colorful assortment of veggies and cheese, they also add nuts and grains.

I loved the taste of the Seven Eleven one.

Plus they had a spicy salsa dressing.

Almost forgot, one other thing we like from Benny is their ohagi.

This one is made by Daruma Beika and their factory is located nearby.

We like that they don't add preservatives to their sweets.

Yesterday's case number was 5042 for Tokyo and overall everyone's numbers are up.

Did you know that they don't have enough hospital bed space in Tokyo so there are over 10,000 cases at home?!

Many have also died while at home because there is actually no real care being administered while people wait for a hospital bed.

Experts are saying Tokyo’s daily case numbers will hit 10,000 in the next two weeks, I’m pretty sure it will be sooner.

All I know is if they decide to cancel the Paralympics, there will be a angry world to deal with.

So…not only do we need to worry about the Delta variant, and maybe getting heatstroke but there are also 3 typhoons roaming around Japan!

Stay safe everyone.
