Teapot is putting her clothes on...


Teacake enjoyed a lunch with her sister's best friend at Afternoon Tea. Afternoon Tea is a name of restaurant. There are many branches in Tokyo, but not as many as starbucks. She went to her favorite branch that day.

Ms-Afternoon-Tea-Teapot always shows up and wears clothes on with yammy food, and make people enjoy.
Depends on the season, clothes are changed. In Summer season, she wears clothes pink based color with flower patterned textile. Teacake doesn't remember what she wore in Spring season... She will check it out soon.

It was solid brown this time. I expected more colorful one, but Teacake thinks Ms Teapot wants her look to match to this season : )

Is Teacake's foot too big as Japanese?


There are signals, signs, marks in public places. When Teacake walked on a street, she wondered if this type of STOP mark exists in other countries. She guess people don't care the STOP mark in Japan because never seen people standing there to stop.

The day when she took this photo, it was like a storm in Tokyo, but she knew it was the first spring storm from a weather report. We call the storm "HARU-ICHIBAN". HARU means Spring, and ICHIBAN means first. HARU-ICHIBAN blew her and her favorite umbrella, and it looked she was almost like a Mary Poppins, but with non-magical umbrella which totally gave her more difficult time to take the photo.

Well, take a look at the pictures. Does this mean her foot is too big as Japanese?

Who is Teacake

Teacake is a 27-year-old-Japan-born woman. She grew up and spent most of her life in Tokyo.
In her childhood, she was like a girl in the book "Totto-Chan-Little-Girl-at-Window"
She had a great deal of curiosity about anything, and made her parents almost always upset because she often disappeared and went to adventure without any notice, so she was a good friend with police officers who were in charge of looking for especially lost children.

My faborite book, "Totto-Chan-Little-Girl-at-Window" available at
http://www.amazon.com/Totto-Chan-Little-Girl-at-Window/dp/4770020678

When she was early 20's, she experienced living in the states for almost 3 years, and now still loves adventure... She couldn't stay at a same place longer. It's her nature....Even in the states, I moved from East coase to west coase to East coase to West Coase.... going back and forth in 3 years...

She loves creative stuffs like drawing, painting, writing, jewely making, sewing, designing, video editing whether good or bad. It was bad depends on the thing : ) These mother frog and daughter frog are enjoying Hot Spring in a small tea cup. Japanese natural hot spring is one of famous thing in the world. They might enjoy natural hot spring. It is from school project designed by Teacake when she was early 20's.

Anyways, I will introduce Tokyo/Japan for you from my perspective, and hopefully you enjoy my site.
