寒くなってきました

最近、ブログの更新率が非常に悪いので、少し反省しています。
いろいろあることにはあるんですが、時間配分が悪いもんで・・・

さて、今日は新しく試している化粧品のご紹介です。

モロッコの粘土から作られてるという、ガスールです。
これは洗顔、洗髪、パックにも使用できます。

私が気に入ってるのは、小さな粒子と洗い流した後のつるんつるん感です。
かなり敏感肌の私でも、しみたりすることは全くありません。

まだはじめたばかりなので、大きな変化は見られませんが、
少し続けていってみようと思います。

私はこちらで購入しました↓(爽快ドラッグ楽天店)
http://item.rakuten.co.jp/soukai/4524989000203/




実はわたくし、最近気持ちを入れかえ(?)、仕事をがんばっています。アレ今までは??
お店に並べる商品数、目標100個!!!今のところ最高で50個ほどです。
倍ですが、大丈夫でしょうか・・・

まぁ、毎日こつこつ作り続けようと思います。
アメリカドラマも諦めたことだしね・・・


今日は最近の作品をいくつかご紹介します。


ネコのリストウォーマーです。パソコン作業時や、お散歩、ちょっとした手作業中などにピッタリです。そしてちょっと強面のアナタには、子供から好かれるアイテムとしても重宝するでしょう♪


お次はちょっと引き締めて、日本の布を使用したネックウォーマーです。スカーフよりもコンパクトなので、室内に入ったからといって外す必要もないですし、なんといってもこのストライプがかわいいでしょ☆


最後はこちらのフェルト帽。サイドにこれまた手の込んだ(自分で言わないで)2枚重ねのフェルトの葉が付けてあり、これを顔の斜め上くらいに置くことで、小顔効果?も得られるかもしれません・・・多分ね
反対側にはサテンリボンが垂れ下がっていて、非常にフェミニンでございます。

ではでは、また次回お会いしましょ~♪

Birthday

There was my hubby's birthday last week.
We went out and had a nice meal at Oyster Bar in Marunouchi My Plaza.

When we got to the restaurant, there was no receptionist. So we had waited for about 2-3 mins.
Finally one lady showed up, and what she said first was we only have bar counter available.
I was upset she didn't even say Welcome, or Sorry.
Then we asked her how long do we have to wait for a table because it's my hubby's birthday dinner.
She let us wait for about 5 mins and told us they can prepare a small table for us.
We were just fine if it's not a bar counter.

When we got to the hall, we were surprised that there are more than 7-8 empty tables!!
She was just so unhappy I guess. But the service is sucks.

I really don't recommend the place to people if it's a special occasion.

Anyway, food was good! I had 4 different raw oysters there. My fav was the one from Hiroshima.

My hubby and me.


We went to Marunouchi Bldg after that.


Inside of Marunouchi Bldg, there are many stylish shops and boutiques.
I love this store called American Pharmacy. Sometimes I miss stuff from the States like soap, shampoo, and candies and so I get them here.

In next year, I will check out the restaurant before taking my hubby.
It was sucks. He told me he had nice birthday though...

Walkin' with Pixel

Me and Pixel went to a park this week for the first time.


She was really excited and her tail hair just stood up!!! :D




She was scared of train noise and wanted to climb on me.




It is rare that she stays in my arms, so this is an advantage being outside for me!!



She is now 6 months old. Her birthday is April 30th.
Her weight is 880g.
I think she eats well, but needs more exercise. My husband is good at playing with her, but with me, she gets lazy.

Happy 6 months, Pixel!!!

Ferret Expo 2009

We went to Ferret Expo 2009 in Lalaport Tokyo Bay yesterday.
It was so much fun for us and hopefully for our ferret Pixel.
The event host was a shop we bought both Puka and Pixel.
They made this ferret money called FURO. http://www.ferret-world.jp/2009/07/14/3516#
I had about 6000 FURO which is about $60 and bought some toys and blanket for Pixel.

They also had tunnel race and some other games there.
Pixel was too young and we didn't try them, but maybe next year:)

Here are some pics!

It was held on top of a department store.



I love being with RJ...



Her carry!



She made a friend!



I see myself everywhere...



Hundreds of ferret and owner were there.

We had been thinking to have another ferret since Puka passed away.
Now Pixel makes our life so much fun and we love her!!

帰郷

この週末、家族みんなで帰郷してきました。

2年ぶりだったので、もう出発数日前から、そわそわΣ(*'∀`*)。

結局あまり眠れずに、旅がスタート。










新幹線では、夫はさっさと食べるものを食べ、飲むものを飲み、パタンって・・・










あたしのところに置かないでよ!!!






そして、人の肩を大いに利用して寝るの・・・・やめてもらえないかしら。


そして私は、さらにウキウキして眠れず、結局肩がこっただけの、新幹線。


そして一日目は私の大好きな高校時代の友達たちと遊ぶのでした。



レトロ~な感じ、伝わるかな。これは60年代くらいをモデルにして作った美容室。ショッピングモールの中にありました。



これはうにラーメン。(Sea Urchin Ramen)


そして大大大好きな牛タン!!本場仙台で食べると、なぜか同じ店でも全然味が違うの・・・・・





友達が赤ちゃんと一緒に来てくれましたー!!かわいー!一才5ヶ月なのに、牛タン食べるの。
さすが仙台人。

そして、この日は友達の家にお泊り。夜中まで楽しく過ごしました。


2日目

2日目から合流の両親と兄一家がいる駅へ移動。



その後、有名なおすし屋さん、美晴鮨でランチ。






そして父が育った田舎へと・・・ 大自然。夫はその雄大さ(?)に感激して、写真を撮りまくっていました。何より感動したのが、たっっっくさんいた蜘蛛。
でもあまりにもリアルなので、こちらでの写真掲載は控えさせていただきます。
ご興味のある方は、夫のブログにそのうち更新されると思います(*´ェ`*)


飯坂温泉で一泊。すきやきがおいしかったぁ~~~ このあとお部屋に持ち込んだチューハイをごっくごっく、みんなでやっつけました。



ハンドルに魅せられた甥っ子。かわいーーー☆


疲れたけど、本当に楽しい旅でした。


おしまい。

How to make an American quilt

Hi there,

Today, I wanna introduce you this movie called How to make an American Quilt. キルトに綴る愛 in Japanese.





I love the stylist of this movie. The clothing girls wear in this movie are so inspiring. I decided to design something after watching.

The music is great too. I do not know about good ol' days in America so much, and this movie shows me a piece of it.
You may also fall in love with those houses in the movie. They have a pretty garden, and the colors are so matching with everything. I hope to visit somewhere like there.

The movie trailer doesn't show you a beautiful part so much which is good, cuz you can enjoy it in the movie.

I don't know what to say about the story so much, but if you are woman, you would enjoy it.




The Baby Day



Yesterday, we had a fun time at Laketown Mall. My sister-in-law and nephew came over here and we went shopping!
That was my first time to hang out with them, just three of us. I saw how hard it is to take care of baby, but at the same time, I realized how much baby makes the life sweet and joyful!
So it was a lovely time.

We had some burger and ice cream. I always enjoy eating there. They have uncountable restaurants and the selections is quite good.

Oh I was attracted by these beautiful fabrics. Maybe in a couple of days, I will make something out of it and show you!!
