Hand made Green Tea cups

Other beautiful works of Mr. Yoshioka.

Original Green Tea Cup

I love the smell of green tea and it makes me feel so relaxed.

This is one of my favorite tea cups which was the original work of Mr. Yoshioka.

Good for green tea, coffee, miso-soup, snacks, noodle, and anything!

Big Egg Plants!!

Here are two huge egg plants from one of my friends for the party last Sunday.

Amazingly big!!

Take a look at the small one which is one of the regular size of egg plants in Japan.

Unusual size of egg plants, I can name it  "obake nasubi".

Weird Englsh

There was a sign board saying "Gentleman is on the second floor."

Oh, well...

It should be "Boys' toilet is on the second floor."

This type of mistakes happen a lot in Japan due to the direct translation method which sometimes or always makes weird English phrases.
