茶時間

all the leather pieces look same in the pic but each one of them is different in thickness. the basic course is almost done and i've ordered a lovely embossed leather piece in beige/white for a bigger  bag, can't wait to receive it to make one with my own style!!! 

my mum's friend brought a box of wagashi called "mugikko kurikko" the other day. it's pretty crispy on top like macarron and filled with a big chestnut and bean-jam, goes perfect with coffee and my favorite hojicha. i lost 3 kg during the sick week but have gained back already, aie...  

knitting in January

it's been much colder than normal this winter, but still there're some lovely flowers blooming in our barckyard. cyclamen is one of them, they look even prettier with snow!

when i was sick in bed, i also spent hours knitting, that's something we can do everywhere and anywhere of course in pj's. i made some little stuff mostly for kitchen. making stuff without a complicated gauge is totally stress-free and relaxing.

my dear friend hanae visited me over the weekend and we had a wonderful time together. we did enjoy super fresh-and-delish food from fish to pasta, wine, music, and chat-chat-chat. she brought me her hand-knitted bolero (above)!!!  i'm simply so touched and feel warm inside out. what a nice gift, i love-love-love it!!! 

SAKEROCK in bed

 

i've been down for a bad flu, spending days and nights only in my room and what i listened most were SAKEROCK and 星野源. i love hoshino's lyrics, so believable like short docu-dramas.

thanks to intravenous fluids, good music, DVDs(i watched so many) and warm tea, i feel much better now and ready for new work!

it's too late to say but HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
