Mini Tanabata in Setagaya koen

For my birthday we went bike riding to the Setagaya-ku Handmade markets and on the way home we stopped off at Setagaya-koen to find this super sweet mini Tanabata display~!

Supermarket

Sometimes, when I'm in my local supermarket, seeing all of the unique vegetables, and Japanese signage, I have to pinch myself to think that I live in this incredible city! I know it's not so exciting to some, but a trip to the supermarket always makes me feel so lucky to live here. Here, I can't find many of the ingredients to cook the things I used to cook nightly from my Donna Hay cookbook, but that's part of the charm. Learning how to cook Japanese dishes like hiyashichyuka, okonomiyaki, gokokumai, and hijiki is so interesting for me. It's small things like bumping into someone and hearing 'ah, sumimasen', or selecting from thousands of tofu and rice options, or perhaps seeing bread in the shape of a bear that make it interesting. I usually smile at at least one thing each time I come here :)
