today

Today we said a final farewell to my lovely little Grandma.

She was a lovely, kind, warm, wonderful person, she was so friendly and good at looking after people. I think we gave her a wonderful goodbye. My mum and I read a eulogy (hard to do!) and then the whole family & friends had tea and cake and laughter & gossip.

I wasn't too sure about putting something on my blog, but it's nice to be able to honor her memory.



The past week has been pretty sad & exhausting, and I am very much looking forward to getting stuck back in to work tomorrow!

(P.S. - the photo is of a book I wrote for her in primary school - it's pretty cute.)

today i love: mochipan!

Kawaii! Such a good idea! Emily of MochiPan makes these adorable purses - it's cute, and it teaches you the Japanese alphabet at the same time!

Chris - I know you are reading this, please buy me one for Christmas? The purses all come with different zip colours and charms, but I like the blue girl best :)

日本語 love

日本語だいすき!! I think that Japanese alphabet is super cute, kawaiidesune! And I also love love love the silly nonsensical English that Japanese people are so fond of, so I wanted to do some silly nonsensical 日本語 for Pocket Carnival. Although I think my Japanese does make sense, but that's okay. I got my lovely friend Yuko to help me with the bunny purse!
