this and that

tried Alps Curry in the Yaechika area of Tokyo Station

buy your ticket at the machine and give it to the person behind the counter

she asked if fukujinzuke was okay, I guess some people don’t like it?!

500 yen (tax included) for chicken curry...this was fast and relatively delicious (kinda oily)

because seating is limited, you might not be able to sit together if you have a large group

this is one of those eat and go places, not somewhere to "talk story"

I'm glad we tried this place it has been in business since 1969 *cash only

beautiful sunrises recently
stumbled upon a block party on my walk back from the market, it was blazing!
halloween-ish chocolate pie from Vie de France
teaching myself how to use chopsticks better...
no rain no rainbow...seen on Tuesday
friend Mayumi texted me that she was sending us some shine muscat I got worried because last year she sent us a lot!

so I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box

her friend grew these, some are sweet, some are not, some have seeds, some do not

grateful for her kindness...thank you!
so teeny!

Typhoon #30 (Champi) has formed, the weather dude said it’s been 13 years since we’ve had 30 typhoons in a year?! this one seems to be heading toward Okinawa BUT will also turn upward toward Honshu afterwards.

Hoping this typhoon will be the last for this year

Have a safe weekend!
