Welcome to my blog! I hope you enjoy your visit. Here are a few quick links to my most popular content:
I spotted such a cool and creepy garage decoration today. Halloween is so much fun! 🎃🕷️
I picked up a new watch the other day: the Casio Sauna SAN100H-7B. It’s easily the funkiest little watch I’ve ever bought, and that’s the main reason I wanted it. It is specifically designed for a sauna environment, so it’s water- and heat-resistant with a built-in 12-minute timer – apparently the ideal amount of time for a sauna session. The flexible band is also styled just like the locker key wristbands you get at an onsen or Korean spa. It’s pretty neat, and I can’t wait to wear it at an onsen in Japan or even just in our ofuro at home! ♨️✨
I decided on an old standby for my birthday dinner tonight: Asia Cafe. I’ve always loved their Spicy Fish, so getting it was an absolute must. We ended up ordering a lot of extra food, so we’ll definitely be enjoying the leftovers for a few days! 🎂🥡
I tried another quick sketch using the continuous line technique. I did lift the pen up a few times, but for the most part, I stuck to just one line. It’s a really fun way to draw! ✍️🎨
Up in the sky today, I caught sight of something I’d never seen before: a “Hole Punch” or “Fall-Streak” cloud. Very cool, right? ☁️😮
Yuzu has really been enjoying taking her naps in the shrine lately. It’s been a month or so since I last saw her in there, so seeing her back in that spot the past few days was quite a surprise! 😴⛩️
I haven’t been enjoying Inktober as much as I hoped. Trying to figure out what to draw for daily prompts seems to kill my momentum, which is already hard to come by. Turns out I much prefer drawing whatever I feel like rather than following a prescribed prompt. Oh well, at least I gave it a good try! ✏️📖
