Bday

Looks like everyone wants to celebrate early for me. Who am I to argue. #fb

Hair did

Minami's cousins always do something interesting with her hair. #fb

Yuko's Kitchen

Yuko's off Wilshire was good. Their boba drinks were ok but food was fusion Japanese-Americanized with decent quality. Fish & chips (wonton chips, tempura fish), Cali & tempura roll, unagi-don (eel rice bowl). #skyguy76 #fb

Day of fulfillment

Just screened ROBOCOP 4k remastered Blueray, eating menchi-katsu omu-rice curry, how better can things get? Oh yeah, the wife's out of town this weekend (that's not the answer just FYI). #skyguy76

Four Seasons

Vivaldi's Four Seasons and Minami's themed crown is a go! #fb

Magic Mirror

Minami's reflection does a little dance. #skyguy76

Muji mess

Seconds after this photo Minami knocked so item by swinging around the shopping basket. She thereafter lost her basket rights at the Muji store in LA. And as for the Muji store itself, it's pretty big and very similar to ones in Japan. #mcy #skyguy76

Lunch Service

Eventhough Minami is getting better she still expects lunch service in her play house. Enjoy it while it lasts Minami...

Can we fix it? Yes we can!

I made a small modification to Minami's play house. I cut the inner door in half so that it's like a Dutch door covering only the lower half. The outer door completely closes the entrance and I attached a pair of left over magnets and washers that snap the door shut.

Home is where the heart is

Before departing for Japan, Minami's grandfather (mama's side) built her a house. It's quite sturdy and a well designed build. It really brightened her sick day.

Sick day

Minami came back home with a slight fever just two weeks into school. Further proof that classrooms are nothing but incubators for germs.

Kotohajime 2014

In Little Tokyo for a little cultural experience.

Minami California's name in stone

Minami's name was engraved at the Japanese American National Museum.
