(Ahem. I forgot about you. I’m sorry. I promise I’ll be better. Happy Holidays!) *** I’ll warn you, day four of Tokyo was relatively uneventful (and THIS is why.) After all the partying and wandering around that we had done our bodies were basically screaming at us to take it easy for a little while. … Continue reading

Tokyo Day Three!
Looking back, I’m really confused about what actually happened this day. I have tons of photos, obviously, and they are all organized by day…. but we lost a day flying to Tokyo and so the dates are all wrong and I’m just confused. I mean…I think I have it figured out. If not, I’ll do … Continue reading
Tokyo Day Two (Part Two!)
Picture this: I am sitting at my computer desk, with sleep-hair piled on top of my head. I am wearing leopard print pajama pants and a frown. It’s a rainy morning, my oatmeal has gotten cold and I am back in the United States. Truth be told, I have been back state-side for exactly a … Continue reading

Tokyo Day Two! Part One!
I am currently on a Shinkansen (bullet-train) bound for Kyoto right now. This will be another picture-less post, I’m afraid. Sadly, I haven’t been able to update daily. Not so sadly, the reason why is because every day has been chocked full of awesome. On day two we went to Mitaka, which is right outside … Continue reading

Oh, Shibuya– where everyone is beautiful and EVERYONE is dressed to the nines. First, though, we had breakfast at our hotel at the restaurant Royal Host which was … Continue reading
Nihon!
I am currently 1,024 miles away from Tokyo! Our arrival time is 3:44 pm (for you on the East Coast of the US that’s 2:44 in the morning.) We are a little less than two hours away and it has just hit me that we are really going to be spending the next twelve days … Continue reading
YATTA!
(You remember that, right?) Just a quick little post to let you know that we got our reservation for the Ryokan Heianbo! More pictures! (photo source: google …because I haven’t been there– yet!) The Ryokan is booked– now I’m just waiting for a more appropriate Japanese time (It’s three am over there … Continue reading
Watashi Wa Nihongo o Manande Imasu
Since I got my Ghibli Museum Tickets yesterday, Japan has definitely been on the brain. And I realized that I haven’t let you in on another recent hobby of mine! Learning (conversational) Japanese! I’m not very good at it… but I’m trying! I also haven’t told you about it because…well… I’m afraid you’ll think that … Continue reading
Mailbox Full of Magic
So, my mailbox has been overflowing with some seriously beautiful wedding things. A while ago, I blogged about gifts for my bridesmaids and how I found a lot of really fantastic deals on Ebay and beautifully handmade things on Etsy. Everything has since arrived safe and sound and so I’ve shifted my efforts to all … Continue reading
