こんにちは! How’s it going?

Today we went to Gyu-Kaku for some yakiniku. It was yummy! Since it was during happy hour, we ordered many different types of meat. And also a pitcher of beer which we couldn’t finish. $16 for a pitcher of Kirin!

Today’s photos were taken using the Toy Camera mode on the Olympus E-PL9. I set it to square format to get that old Polaroid look and enjoy it very much! You’ll probably be seeing lots more photos like this in the future.

My Fujifilm X-E4 also has a similar filter, but I think the Olympus does a better job at it.

I hope you had a good day! またね〜

Morning and Evening

Today’s photo is actually two. One taken as the sun was just rising, and the other as it was setting. The day seemed to go by so quickly today.

I’m thinking of cutting down my caffeine intake. It’s been hovering at 2 cups of coffee per day, but starting tomorrow, I’ll make two at the lowest “strength” setting on our machine. Let’s see how that goes. I do enjoy decaf coffee too, so maybe one cup of lighter coffee in the morning, and one cup of decaf in the afternoon?
