The Usual Scenery

The usual scenery every morning – both on the table and from the window. I do love my ‘office corner’, as we’re situated right next door to a temple. A sparrow family also has a nest on that pole you can see from the window, inside that big lump of electric-what-ever-it-is. Quite lovely, as they often just sit on the wires below the nest and keep on singing.

Me & Koi have taken a habit of making fresh fruit & vegetable smoothies every morning to start the day. A nice, delicious way of getting our 5-a-day. That and a big mug of fresh coffee (which we make from local Yanaka coffee beans) are daily essentials! The fruit we buy also from a local fruit vendor, Mr. Tanaka (+his wife & baby),  as often as we can, as he doesn’t keep the shop open every day. It’s apparently some kind of fruit ‘outlet’, where they sell the fruit they haven’t sold to restaurants etc. Because of this, the price is also often quite cheap compared to regular supermarket prices.
