Hey y’all!
Japan is famous for a lot of strange things, but one thing the country is known for is odd vending machines. Throughout the country you can find vending machines that carry food, drinks, computer parts, Sriracha and, apparently, farm fresh vegetables. One day as I was walking down the various small streets of downtown Ogaki, I came across a small room that was filled with said vending machines. Refilled at least once a day, you can buy an array of food good such as tomatoes, mushrooms and eggs. I think this is a brilliant and fun way to get these items onto your kitchen table and a great way to help out local farmers.
Anyways, be sure to keep an eye out for all of the crazy vending machines!

Hello everyone, hope you are doing well! Despite all the rain we’ve had recently, the weather being a little warmer is nice. I’ve been able to go on more walks and really enjoy outside.
I also love a good sunset. One of my favorite things to do on the weekend is just relax on my balcony and watch the sun go down. How about you? What do you do to relax these days?
See you in class soon!

みなさんこんにちは。
夏を感じますね。毎年、これくらいの時期になると思うことは、6月なのにこんなに暑いの？です。夏乗り越えられないでしょって思ってしまいます。結局乗り越えられてしまうので大丈夫なのですが。今年の夏もまた不安です。ただ気温が上がったことで嬉しいこともあります。BBQの季節ですね。
昨年度はコロナの影響でほとんどできなったので今年はいっぱいできたらと思います。やっぱり良いですね。夏！

If you go to Daiso or Seria, they have small portions of 100% cotton fabric in cute designs. These are intended for small fabric crafts, but most especially for mask-making. The fabric masks I made last year have been very well-loved and used, and they’re definitely wearing out, so I decided to pick up some cool patterns to make new masks with. And to have some fun along the way.
So, I made a mask using a cute design in my school colors: purple and gold, as the front of the mask. The inside is made from some leftover black cotton fabric I had lying around. And while I was at Seria, I also picked up some soft black elastics, so I didn’t even have to make bias tape straps from scratch like I usually do! That was the nicest part, honestly. The whole project took maybe twenty-five minutes from start to finish. And at the end of it, my sewing companion kindly deigned to model my new gear.
