Uni uni uni!!!!


Rented car and drove down to Tanesashi coast to devour on uni. Was fully prepared to wait a long time for it as we went during obon period. True enough, the crowd was crazy and I had difficulty looking for an empty lot. In the end I parked at a hostel type of lodging house and asked for permission with the owner. Wanted to pay but the kind owner said its ok :)!!!!

Thankfully did not waited long as most were finishing up. My cousin had been anticipating the meal since i had been raving all along. Last year I could only eat the cooked uni and was unsatisfied. This year thanks to my cousin, she treated me to raw uni set (3500 yen). She also declared its best uni she ever ate and could never eat any uni back in Singapore... hehe told u!

Her vacation was like my vacation. Thanks to her, i had help walking with my dog, taking care bb while S n my in laws were away. She paid for almost everything during her stay with me. Quite paiseh about it.

热闹的生日


My 2nd time writing since the previous one was deleted when the app crashed.... sighh....

This year birthday had my family and friends celebrating with me! Surprised me with the cake and that was my first birthday “cake” in Japan! Usually we only buy a slice since we could not finish. Appreciated their gesture but if only i was more presentable haha!

My cousin came to visit me! She took me out for dinner and I chose my favorite sushi restaurant! They had changed to omakase type. There’s buffet of crab, nabe and sushi for 90 minutes (4500yen each) but I did not like it.

5000 yen omakase crab dinner was worth the price tag, we ate to out fullest and was given extra grilled crab to thank me for always patronizing them lol! I gave up taking the photos as I was busy eating w my hands.

S took me a sushi restaurant Misawa and supposedly served local politicians. We went in without reservation and realized that it was almost fully booked that day.

Thank you everyone for making this year birthday a memorable day for me!

Hideji's 我慢できないの夏


Hot hot summer comes and our poor Hideji is suffering from the summer heat. He was having poor appetite even to the extent that he rejected his favorite treats! Did not want to go for his walks under the scorching pavement so my fil has to walk him before sun arises and after sun sets.

Discussed w S on bringing Hideji to groomer to shave his fur. However this came with a hefty price tag ($100sgd). Hence, S decided to try to DIY!

End result looked horrible, our tiny shaver only managed to trim the neck and his butt area. Even then it took a hour, not to mention the aftermath we had to clean up. I thought our dog would not like the sound of the shaver and even tried to escape. Yet no lol! He loved it! Patiently standing throughout the process and wagging his tail.

Im sure he did not understand how bad he looks now.... looks like a cat now lol.... if he is a human, we only remove his neck warmer :p

Hideji, next year I shall convince your dad to send you to a groomer instead! Do not trust his grooming skills ok?!
