Chocolates featuring the bunny, ‘LOVE’ (designed by J-pop chick, Otsuka Ai), on the wrapper. They’re cute, aren’t they? That’s why I bought all five variations. Don’t wanna open and eat them…

Have a break, have a KitKat. Is that still the catchphrase back in England? Anyway, here is this season’s KitKat - sakura flavour. Although KitKat is one of many foreign brands here, that doesn’t stop it from getting the exclusive ‘Japan only’ treatment (just like last summers Pepsi Ice Cumcumber).

This is the second time it snowed in Tokyo this winter. The first time (last Wednesday), although had heavy snowfall, the snow didn’t really stick nor last long, which is fine with me cuz I’m no fan of snow (had enough of it back in England during my childhood days. Boy, did I love getting snowballed by school friends… not).

It’s that season again! Every year around this time, I always go on a Hokkaido Crab binge. For JP¥5,500 you can eat as much crab as you like within 90 mins. Not exactly the sweetest crabs around but it’s good enough considering the price.

For those whom are looking forward to an onslaught of HK food pics here will be very disappointed because I didn’t take all that many…

Ulala (XX Nov 2001 - 18 Apr 2007) attacking and munching on a tissue box!

Date taken: 25 May 2006
Ulala’s age: 4yrs 6mths
Format: digital

It’s been exactly one week, to this minute, since Ulala headed off. The week has been exceptionally long….

Ulala is 100% back! From the day after his surgery, he’s been acting as if the operation never happened at all! Tearing magazines and newspapers, jumping on and off the sofa, chewing on the rug, running into other rooms, + all the usual bunny mischiefs.

Ulala has always been rather rebelious and usually demands quite a bit of attention otherwise you’d have nothing left of your favourite Armani Jeans, your favourite magazines, etc. Come to think of it, I’m actually beginning to feel grateful that he is such a naughty boy. This factor probably contributed to his fast recovery.

Anyway, it’s great he is doing so well. My worries have been put to rest. And, thanks for all the well wishes.

紅葉/Kouyou basically translates directly to red leaves. Around this time of the year, leaves on some trees turn bright orange (or red) and people would venture out for sightseeing. A few years ago, I went to Kamakura for Kouyou and thought it was rather nice but I never got to go anywhere for Kouyou ever since. So this year, I made an arrangement to go to Takao-san which is 45 mins train ride from Shinjuku.
