Second Best?

It's a thanksgiving day, which is a holiday in Japan.

Beaujolais nouveau of the year is released on third Thursday of November

Cheese is a good friend of wine, first time to cook macaroni and cheese

100g of macaroni and variety kind of cheese including cheddar, sliced onion, nutmeg, 
fresh herbs, milk and bread crumbs on top
Taste of home cooking?
We call it 'Ofukuro no aji' (Mums food taste)

Walking in Kappa-bashi to find kitchenware


And found a beautiful Miso-soup bowl


While I was drinking Beaujolais nouveau on the Thursday night,
I remembered the voice recode that was from a Japanese counselor lady who was living in the UK.
She does the business on the internet and I purchased it in 2012.

She read my email and did remote reading and replied in the voice message.

It was easy to find the file in my PC so I listened to it after a long time.

I found it that there are not much changed since then.
She mentioned my aura was hazy because I was not living as a best but the second.

But what is wrong with living a second best?

I suppose almost all people to live with compromise at some point.

Anyway, to find my best, I came to the cafe to write this blog.

Cafe Jubilee is in Shirogane-dai 

From shop, I had french roasted coffee


Thank you for reading and have a nice thanksgiving day!

always a pleasure to read your posts. I didn't realize Thanksgiving was also a holiday in Japan, thought it was only an American event.

Thank you for your comment Mark.
Yes, it used be an original cerebration day which was for Imperial family and prayed of harvest
but switched into American meaning by GHQ after WWII.

Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan. You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a co ttage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it. R einforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down. I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there. It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals. Fujisan with rainbow Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Blackout Threatened

It's very cold day. The consumption of electricity has been increasing due to heating. There's rolling blackouts due to electricity shortages caused from Fukushima nuclear power plant accident. TEPCO, Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc., divided Kanto region into five groups and have been carrying out stop electric power for a few hours in order. Plan was not informed in advance, which gave people confusion. During blackout, traffic light is out of service, there was a fatal traffic accident due to that. My friend took a photo of drinking scene under candlelight At the office, there was an emergency company broadcast at 4:30 pm today. They said 'There might be unpredictable huge blackouts tonight due to lack of supply of electricity according to METI. There will be chance of confusion of transportation therefore go home immediately'. Trains in Tokyo running every few minutes so accurately, and if there's any unusual things such as blackout, it will be a serious con...

Lost in Translation

There are frequent questions for foreigners who visit in Japan such as 'Can you use chopsticks?' or 'Do you eat Natto ?'. And relatively one of the latest might be 'Have you ever watched Lost in Translation?'. And interesting thing is that people who are familiar with Japan well or live in this country for a long time didn't really like that movie. (Including me) I was asked by my friend why, I replied that Sofia Coppola emphasized strange things of Japanese a little bit too much. The Japanese hooker didn't have to be that old woman with such degrading English. The director must have intended it to compare to the heroine who was young and a white beautiful girl. By the way, I and my other friend went to the bar at Park Hyatto in Shinjyku to experience Lost In Translation in last January. The hotel was splendid. All these three picture were being taken by her camera.
