Success!
It was at this same time last year that I realized my body had changed! I crawled out from underneath my winter kotatsu hibernation like a grizzly bear in search of food and warm weather. I traded my sweaters in for t-shirts and realized that I had turned beastly. I must have gained twenty pounds (at least that is what it felt like!). Turns out that what Kate said about chocolate being able to keep you warm was wrong (though, tasty!).
So this year I made an effort to keep myself thin during the bleak and despicable winter months in Japan. Thanks to Sara and other inspirational people I managed to visit the gym more often than I visited the snack isle in Green City. And it was a success. I managed to keep a steady weight, and even lose some, during these last few months. I am very proud of myself. In my family our favorite past time is eating, especially my father, with whom I seemed to have inherited most of my traits. I just have a problem saying no. Who can say no to a delicious cookie or twenty! Also, I had Todd around this year with such inspirational sayings as, "No, those pants don't make you look fat. It is the fat that makes you look fat." Thanks babe!
Anyway, if you don't believe me (Fiona!). Here are some pictures. And I always thought Japan would keep me skinny. All the food here is healthy and amazing right?!?!

Adachi Art Museum
Fiona invited me along to see the Adachi Art Museum on Sunday. She was showing around a friend from home so they were hitting all the highlights of Shimane. Here are my pictures from there. It was a very Japanese garden, hardly any flowers, but very zen. I must say though, that I was not impressed. It could have been better. The best part of the day was in Saty where we did prinkula (print club). It was a good day overall.
Pajama Pants
Yeah! I made pajama pants! They have little mikan (clementines) all over them making different faces. So cute.
