this and that

Went to Comme'N the other day.

Bought their roule chocolat, a cake brioche type dough rolled with chocolate..rich!

The honey nuts baguette, so delicious! honey, salt, nuts, butter! love.

The kinako (soy bean powder) & walnuts, I asked them to slice it for me, this was delicious even if you can’t taste the kinako, 

We checked out Kurazushi for the 1st time...meh

The place was NOT first time visitor friendly, or at least we thought it wasn't.

Not a wide selection of sushi, but all sorts of other foods like ramen, fries and other stuff.

Toro taku was delicious as well as the maguro yuk-hoe (photo above).

At least now we know what the hype about this place is even if it isn't somewhere we'd go back to.

cute small truck with cute escavator
this snack mix by Ton’s, delicious! cheesy and a little peppery
tried Aunt Stella's cookies, which opened recently in the shopping center nearby (bottom left then clockwise: almond chocolate chip, chocolate chip, double chocolate, coconut and orange marmalade)
These cookies are crispy, delicious!

And you can buy them by weight...I bought 7 and it cost 575 yen (tax included)

Loved the package, "How to Cook a Husband" is a real excerpt!

The other day we also got rid of our backpacks. It was actually my mom & dad’s I think they gave it to us after climbing Mount Fuji because they weren’t going to use it again and didn’t want to lug it home. 

The coating inside the backpack was making everything we put into into the bag, black, so we finally decided to get rid of them.

I’ve been having heel pain, and finally went to see a doctor, not too sure what the doctor said it was, but it looks like I have a spur (on the X-ray), he recommended heat treatment and electric treatment so I will go 2 or 3 times a week for rehab 

At night I will tape my arch and heel with a medicated tape and whenever I go out will use arch supports, he said it will take some time, but I hope this will heal.

thought it was unusual for them to give me a pen for coming to their clinic...

Tokyo People...the delivery guy...it was blazing.
Cute tiny truck.

My vaccinated arm turned red where the vaccine was administered, it felt hot and then got itchy.

At least the “lump” went away.

We're back to blazing...have a safe weekend.

  1. Curious here. Japan doesn't normally have air conditioners in their homes?

  3. is that Kurazushi the one a little past Shinagawa Station? It was packed so we did takeout and that was way easier.
    If you freeze a water bottle, then when you're sitting around at home, roll it under your arch and that helps ease the pain too.

  5. Yes N, most of us have airconditioners in our homes, it is outside that is pretty uncomfortable.

    V, the one we went to was near Oomori, they have shops all over the place. Thanks for the tip about the water bottle, will try.

    Kirk, ha! you should look online for it, it actually isn't gruesome.

    Take care everyone.
