Mum Mum arrived for a short visit last night! She bore gifts of oatmeal and wine. (The oatmeal sprang a small leak, but the wine survived the trip without spilling.)
She also brought some new books.
And some other comforts of home:
She already tried out our comfortable beds. Is she not brave? Is she not a model of modern retirement? 
And she walked with the boys to school this morning. They showed her all of their favorite vending machines. She got a second lesson on the walk home. By now, I think she knows where the biggest Pocari Sweat bottle can be purchased. 
Mum Mum, Give me a quote.
Japan is cool. It is a neat place to spend a year.
What do you think of the food?
Ummmm....My meal tonight was good.
"What was it," You are asking in blogland. It was tonkatsu (pork cutlet).
Mum Mum's the best...especially when she brings you good gifts! Hope she has a wonderful time.
