“Humanified” Ginko and Yoshi ^o^/
Managed to get husband to help me look into updating the gallery plug in a while back, but only remember to update the gallery now ^^;/
Tokyo Trip – Food part 2
No I did not forget! ^^; Just been busy ;_;/ Noticed that my husband did food posts too lol! So there WILL be some repeat pix, but I think his notes and mine are a bit different, mine are ordered more by the timeline ^^;/
1) This time looks like I’m starting out with the Mochi ice cream which we had when we went to check out Odaiba Gundam ^o^
Tokyo Trip – Food part 1
So, as promised here is the food post ^^; Went thru almost every day’s worth of food pictures, making sure they’re not too blurry etc, took a little while. I am home feeling kinda sick (it’s on and off =_=) I might as well do something with the photos before I get busy with work again. There’s about 80-ish photos, which I will split in 2 entries.
1) Below is Mochi cream, a yummy dessert which we bought frozen at the Airport to eat on flight. They defrost in about 2 hours and are ready for consumption. You can buy dry ice to keep it frozen a little longer and they usually keep for about a day for maxium freshness and taste.
Post birthday documentation ^^
Take note, my birthday has already passed okay :P LOL This is just an entry to document activities and of course FOOD ABUSE lol! We start with this yummy salmon burger (Which I already took a nibble of) which I had at Watermark on Kits Beach photo taken by my husband ^^ I took one before the nibble but I felt that this one taken by my husband looks better ^^/
Lumix LX3
Our current 3 year old point and shoot digital camera is not meeting our expectations these days, especially during low light condition. So me and hubsband decided to give LX3 a try — thanks to seeing some recommendations in the comments on dannychoo.com and Danny’s own photos. The nice thing about some (not all) of the stores in Canada is that we at least have a 14 day return policy, so we can actually try the camera for that period of time to see if it’s a keeper :)

So far we’re still trying to get used to the different features and functions, so not all photos are picture perfect. So if you’re curious to see what pictures we took with the LX3, this entry is for you :) Be warned tho, there’s food pix ahead!
Obligatory food post and random :3
Thanks Pyoro for the reminder, it just wouldn’t feel right if I don’t post about food no? So this entry is like, food overload ^^; Below is a view of the new Vancouver Convention Center, we went there on spur of the moment after dinner with friends for coffee and shared desserts.
Lots of food pix ahead, you been warned! :P
Spring and things
Sorry, just realised my last post was last Saturday ^^; Just been a little too busy and quite overwhelmed, recently found out that my team got into finals for blythe beauty contest 2009, and many more things to do/plan from there still! ^^;/
This year is my 5th spring in Canada :D I dare say it is one of my favourite seasons, despite the hayfever and sinus headaches it causes husband and I ^^;
Mio Akiyama fan art completed
Took a bit longer to finish this one up as I decided to add some detail to the instrument she was holding (ahem). Her bass guitar was drawn in Flash, exported into PNG file then paste into photoshop and lightly edited. Previous line art progress here.

Snowstorm, some artwork, all you can eat sushi
I drew these when I was working at the shop during the slower hours ^^; Didn’t get to scan/upload till now ^^; Picked three to feature :) One of them is a mascot of someone we know ;P And after artwork, some crazy snow pix ahead ^^;
The best Lemon Tea in the world!
On Sunday, when me and hubs were running errands we came across by sheer chance, my most favourite Lemon Tea in the whole wide world!!!! I am soooooo stoked as we had hunted for it since I moved to Canada and had no luck, we’d only see the same brand, but other types of tea — Mango, Apple, Lychee, Peach etc etc… everywhere and just NO Lemon tea! o_o I was close to getting my friends to ship some over but no luck, also it’s too heavy to ship drinks over safely too ;_;
Basically at the time, all hope was lost… until Sunday :P Must thank hubs for suddenly decided that he need to get some drinks home otherwise we’d have skipped the drinks section and miss out again!
