			High Definition Viewing!
	I got tired of my old 12 or 13" TV while watching '24', so I couldn't resist when I saw this classified ad advertising this 29" flatscreen Hitachi for only 25,000 yen (about $250). One of my friends helped me pick it up in his car about a month ago and since then I've been enjoying watching my DVD collection again, not to mention the TV series 'Lost'. To be honest I don't watch much TV, but it looks good even just sitting there turned off!

Swedish for Common Sense...
		Ikea just opened a huge new store near Tokyo a couple weeks ago, you know, that Swedish furniture store? Anyway when I say huge, I mean really, really big. Not sure how many square meters it is but Kumi and I spent 3.5 hours there and we didn't even manage to see everything before they closed. They also have a massive cafeteria-like restaurant that seats maybe 500. Of course Swedish meatballs are on the menu and wow, they were good! I ate 15 of them plus potatoes, bread, a drink and a slice of pie. I also bought a bunch of low-priced home furnishings, nice job Ikea!

Pancake master!

It's become a Sunday morning tradition now. Every week I make my homemade pancakes for Kumi and I for breakfast. At first it was mainly apple pancakes but soon I started experimenting with different fruits. We've done: apple, blueberry, strawberry, kiwi, pineapple, and banana so far. Hard to say which was the best, probably apple or blueberry, or maybe strawberry.... Kiwi and pineapple were ok but sour fruit doesn't seem quite right somehow. Anyway needless to say, I've become something of an expert about pancakes, maybe I'll open my own shop?
