How thoughtful of him! And immaculate taste. Hopefully you'll make something tasty in the very near future so you've opportunity to showcase your crockery wares with a recipe post? (hiiiiint!)
What a guy! ;) Beautifully minimal.
So sweet & thoughtful of him! I hope to visit Tokyo (or Japan in general) someday. Such wonderful and unique culture there.
By the way -- I am in love with your blog. I stumbled upon it this morning and I have probably spent the last half hour reading through posts you have written. Your style and food posts are probably my favorite! I adore your style... I don't think I have found one outfit I didn't wish I owned myself. :P
Your pups are ADORABLE. I have a dachshund that I just love to pieces. So I enjoy little stories & imagery of pets. :) So sweet..
..so yeah, you definitely have a new admirer here. :) I also very much love your blog url, too. Very fitting!
that rabbit tea towel is fantastic. what a sweet husband! (with great taste:) i'm off to HK in a few weeks and hoping to find some cool trinkets, although i don't think they'll ever compare to the great design in japanese products!
thanks everyone!
@rebecca- you can bet on it! :)
@maggie- yes! that's my favorite thing about japanese design. so gorgeous in it's simplicity.
@latrina, thanks so much for the great note and welcome!
@lauren- ooooooh, i want to go to hong kong too! that sounds amazing!
