this and that

Back in July, we tried Hio Ice cream

I recently bought some other flavors for us to try...corn milk...

interesting but weird mouth feel, kinda grainy?!


Floral chocolate was super rich and chocolatey...love!
For Halloween, we had some cakes from Enomoto...Satoshi's Japanese chestnut and salted caramel.
I had their pumpkin tart...loved the chocolate bat too!
We shared these cakes from Vanni the night before with wine...no bake cheesecake...the goblin was white chocolate...boo!
chocolate cake was rich and delicious.

We started November with our case number falling to 9 for Tokyo!

We are still in awe as to how quickly our numbers fell...crossing fingers we are headed in the right direction.

Many of the other prefectures have been enjoying 0 daily cases.

Japan’s fully vaccinated rate is up to 72%

“Someone” has drinking meet ups lined up in the coming weeks…

Hope to get out to see some fall foliage in the coming weeks too.

Have a safe weekend.

amazing how low the numbers are. Do they sell testing kits there for home use?

V, they are talking about selling testing kits but it hasn’t been approved by government yet.

Take care.

I saw that Japan recorded zero Covid deaths the other day Kat! That's such good news - hope it holds steady!
