Yomogi-mochi is a traditional sweets of Japan. Yomogi is actually a weed, and you can often find it amongst other weeds outside. Sometimes yomogi mochi is also called kusamochi (literally weed rice cake). The last time I made it was when i was in elementary school…but today i felt like make it again. It tastes very good.

On the way to Whistler, I saw this big black bear on the side of hwy 99. Looked like he’s just woken up from hibernation.
If you are stopping in Squamish for a nice quick lunch, I strongly recommend you to try the Wigan Pier Fish & Chips restaurant.
They make the best fish & chips. The restaurant owner is from England so it’s an authentic fish & chips.
Cod & Chips…so yummy.

I made a short trip to Yufuin in Oita-pref during my short visit to Japan.
The hot spring Musouen （夢想園）I visited was just amazing. It can fit up to 150 people and spectacular view of Mt.Yufu is all yours.
空海の湯
On a perfectly sunny day, the view from hotspring will look like this… however, the day I visited was raining and misty. But it was still very nice.
My room…nice and cozy with kotatsu in the middle.
Dessert was served after dinner. It’s a tiny dish but most memorable out of all the others.

My cat loves to sleep in the basket but he is getting little too big for this one..
長い冬なのでしばらくの間冬眠しておりました。家の猫ちゃんはバスケットの中に入るのが好き。でも最近、太りすぎたせいか中で丸くなることもできず苦労していましたw かわいいでしょ？ 親バカは多分一生治らないかな〜

I found this really cute butterfly print magazine holders.The illustration is drawn by Andy Warhol in his early work. As the preeminent American artist of the 20th century, he challenged the world to see art differently. As I placed them in my blk book shelf, they really pop-out. Thank you Mr.Warhol for your artistic talents…I really love it.

I enjoyed having high tea @ Secret Garden with some of my favorite friends. Their creamy earl grey tea is highly recommended.
