“Sisters” Cedar Park, 2017

Our cats are so funny. Because they are sisters, they are very affectionate with each other. And they love to hang out and they have the same mannerisms. It’s really odd sometimes!

At the same time, they have their own distinct personalities and styles. The one at the bottom of the photo lies down with her legs splayed out in this way, while the other one never does that. Strange!

I hope you had a nice Tuesday.

おやすみなさい!

“Sunburst” Cedar Park, 2017

こんばんは。Just a photo today. The sun was coming in the window making a cool shaft of light. I couldn’t capture it in the photo, but I did manage to get a nice sunburst. I think the cat thought the early evening light was nice too! 🐱

I hope you had a nice start of the week!

おやすみなさい!

“Big As Yo’ Face” Cedar Park, 2017

Hello! A new location of the local Austin Tex-Mex restaurant Chuy’s opened near our house, so we had an early dinner there today. I had the gigantic “Big As Yo’ Face” burrito in the photo above. It was so filling and delicious, but I am so stuffed that I will need to do some fasting this coming week! 😆

Chuy’s is a fun restaurant, with a lot of kitschy decor on the walls and ceilings. And there’s also a huge Elvis Presley theme going on! I’d say Chuy’s doesn’t have the fanciest food, but it’s consistently good and has a great atmosphere. If you ever have the chance to dine at one, I recommend it! Just be prepared to wait a bit for a table. 😝

“Tofu Bento” Austin, 2017

こんばんは。How was your Saturday?

Today I took some photos of bento that our friends’ restaurant will sell. 🍱 The photo above is a closeup of the tofu bento, but I think the photos that will be used are just the basic top-down angle. But, I took several closeups too just in case.

As a bonus for the work I did, I got to take the bento home, and we had it for lunch and dinner. おいしかった!😄

This afternoon I relaxed by watching a lot of TV… first I watched an episode of Yuki!!! On Ice, which is an anime that Emily Yoshida is discussing on her podcast, It’s Cool to Like Anime. I decided to give it a watch, but the first episode didn’t interest me too much. I’ll probably watch a couple more to see if it grows on me.

I also started watching a currently running Japanese dorama, Tokyo Tarareba Musume, which I will blog about in another post… more to come!

おやすみ
