i love ishikawa vol.1

why i love ishikawa?
there are just so many beautiful hidden treasures in this area
and one of them is cafe

just walk around
turn at a random corner
a nice cafe can be found

today i had a couple nice new discoveries:


bento shop (take-out lunch box)
i actually did some research and made an order the day before going


here is what i came out with



the bag has a stamp on it む 'mu'--the initial of the shop's name
how cute!
and the staple is in pink!!
funky!!


what's in the box??



Voila!
dessert included?!?! WOW!! lovely! (it's a whole wheat lemon scone...yummy~)


found a nice spot with shades along the river
oh...i am hungry!!


as if i am not satsified with the delicious scone...
i got myself a nice japanese sweet too...hehe...yes..call me greedy~
aren't those balls on the top adorable?



i found an interesting gallery/cafe when i was taking a walk after lunch
too bad it was closed...but i will definitely come back



and...what i found after more walking is another nice cafe...one that is opened!!
let's go in~ (i was craving for caffine)



white walls...pink and blue tiles floor...wooden tables and wooden chairs with red cushions
notice the little details: there is a dialing phone hanging on the wall...and a time-card slot!! how cool!!



cheese cake with a hint of maple syrup....hmmmmmmmmmmm!


and here comes my coffee!!!
smelling gooooooooooooooda!
wait!! what's that on the side??


oh!!! sugar cookies!!
aren't they just ADORABLE?!?

that's why i love where i live~
more to come!!

note:
lunch box shop: ムシャリラ・ムシャリロ(musyarira.musyariro)
cafe: Parlour KOFUKU

Young@Heart

after the 'exotic'(hehe) Kinky Boots
i picked up 'Young @ Heart'
a documentary featuring a choir with members who are over the age of 70

it's a really heart-warming film
i absolutely love it
i watched the movie with my granny which made it a little more magical~☆

there are many favorite scenes
but the one that stroke me the most was where 2 members practicing 'Fix You' by Coldplay (one of my favs of Coldplay btw)

side note:
i love kids
but after working in Kawakita
i am totally falling in love with the elderly also(don't take it the wrong way please...hehe)
they fascinate me everytime i am with them

in that little, fragile body
holds so much treasure, knowledge, wonders and surprises

Kinky Boots

after 'Once'
i switched to something....'exotic'??? haha!

but don't let the title and the boots scare you off!!
it's a great movie!
i had so much fun watching it~
i like the story, the characters and the setting too.

definitely worth giving it a try!!

so long

Once

it has been a while before my last DVD
took a bike ride to the DVD rental shop
and came home with 'ONCE'

it's a beautiful movie
with lovely music

i love how the movie minimize the verbal dialogue between the characters
but it's filled with rich emotions and feelings

one thing i really appreciate about this film is that there is no unnecessary sexual scene...it's something you can't find now...

p.s. i want to visit Dublin someday
p.s. i am sorry...as you can tell..i am just really bad at writing movie reviews
