Sunday - Sunny and warm, cooler at night
Today turned out okay. I wasn’t sure it would for a while, but it did.
I woke up in the morning, went downstairs and then came back to bed and slept a bit longer. I finally dragged myself out of bed around 11:30. We didn’t go anywhere for ages though.
Around 2 pm I finally bugged F to get going so that I could have some lunch! I suggested a few places and then we decided to go to the Bus Depot’s tonkatsu place. When we got there, we parked and I saw the sign. I thought it said that the last order was at 2:30 and it was 2:28 at the moment. F made us go in, and he saw the sign. 2:30 was the last order during the week. Weekends lunch went much later! I had tonkatsu and F had another dish, a grilled pork. He gave me a taste and it was very nice. I liked mine a lot though.
After lunch, we went over to Musashi and got some of K’s favourite soda and another case of a sports drink. I loaded them in the car. We had another run through the store, F dragged me all over the store and I wasn’t too happy with him, but it was good that he went to see what interested him.
We were going to go back to the house, but I suggested checking out the coffee shop that I had discovered on the net on Friday. It’s not really close to the house, but it is within walking or biking distance for me. We got there and went in. I think the guy was really hoping that we’d eat something, but we were still full from lunch. F had a blend coffee and I had an iced coffee. Unfortunately, their iced tea was made of Earl Grey tea so I had to pass.
We enjoyed our time in the cafe. I’m not sure if I will visit it by myself very often, but I’m happy that there finally is a place I can go if I want/need to get out of the house.
We popped back to the house for a little while. F and I carried the sodas into the house and then we spent a bit of time inside. I was upstairs and F came up after a bit and suggested that we go and buy a new toaster oven. I was surprised but was fine with it. I said it was okay if we got K something for dinner first. I was worried that she hadn’t eaten for a while. We zoomed off to the grocery store and picked up a few things for her and a drink for me.
F delivered the food to K and then we went off to K’s Denki, the electric goods shop. We looked at toaster ovens and finally decided on one. F asked for a discount and he got one, so that was nice. We got help from the store to bring the oven out to the car. I probably could have carried it, but hey, why not take help if you can get it!
After it was in the car, we talked about what to do next. I suggested dinner and either the nearby keiten sushi place or a family restaurant. F wanted the not so close sushi place. We drove there, but it was quite busy, so we went back to the first one. It wasn’t too busy. We had to wait about five minutes, but were able to get a table, so that was nice.
The sushi place was good, but rather expensive. We didn’t eat all that much as F wasn’t too hungry still. I did enjoy what we had though. I paid and then we went to get groceries. I knew that F had walked a lot today and was tired, so I offered to go inside by myself. He was fine with that. We went to Pal and I bought some food. It took a little longer as it is a shop we don’t go to that often, but it was really fine.
I picked up a bit of food and then paid. I went out to the car too. F was waiting and was surprised to see me!
We came back to the house and I put away the groceries. F unboxed the toaster oven and then we set it up. I even washed the grill and the tray that came with it.
I came upstairs and after a bit watched Project Runway. It was a collaboration between the designers and designers of accessories. It was okay, but I was a tad sad about the person who went home.
And that was my day. F went off to sleep around midnight and I started blogging.
Tomorrow, I have to work on my column as the deadline is fast approaching and I haven’t done anything on it for a few days. I also have the usual dinner cooking nonsense, so that will be fun. On one of the days, I’ll be using the new toaster oven. I’ll use it tomorrow to make my toast I think too! Fingers crossed it doesn’t burn my toast!
Come back later if you like and hear about my Monday. Until tomorrow….
